Shorty’s Ark book announced by Drag City Records
A huge dream of mine has come true. I got to make a picture book! Big everlasting thanks to Will Oldham for inviting me to collaborate with him on this project based on the song he wrote with Matt Sweeney, "Shorty's Ark", from their recent album Superwolves. It has just been announced by Drag City Records and is available for pre-order.
Here is more about the book from the Drag City website:
"Drawing inspiration from the story of Noah, Shorty’s Ark names and pictures a wild variety of species to inform and engage an equal variety of young minds with the diversity that can be found around this great planet of ours. The flood stands as metaphor for current impending changes in our planet, and the story works as a springboard for understanding concepts of interdependency, diversity and extinction. Colorfully illustrating as many creatures and their places as possible, Shorty’s Ark is an earth-affirmative vision meant to stimulate the curiosity and passion of those who encounter it."
