My first children’s book made the NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERS LIST!!!

Marcel the Shell With Shoes On: Things About Me (the children’s picture book that I painted) has made the rounds – from various online sources to more notably being featured in Entertainment Weekly, People Magazine, and TIME Magazine.com.  As if that all isn’t exciting enough, I just found out that the book made last week’s New York Times Best Sellers list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I’m absolutely over. the. moooooon!!!

Congrats to all involved in making the book so spectacular – especially Jenny Slate and Dean Fleischer-Camp (co-creators of Marcel and authors of the book)!!

    A huge congrats. I will take credit for the purchase of books for my four daughters and my wife. I felt that all of them should have one for their collections as a Christmas present. Made me look real good.
