I can only imagine the disappointment you faced dealing with this. There was definitely noticeable details missing in comparison to the originals. Regardless, you are very talented and you shouldn't let that bad experience keep you from continuing to work as an illustrator. Are there any other well known books that you've done the art for?
Thank you,@stoner19. The year after this book I illustrated Eugene Field's "Wynken, Blynken and Nod." In 2000, "Mother Holly" was released,and I did a post about working on a chapter book with Julie Andrews. Here's the link for that story https://steemit.com/art/@jlwkolb/what-it-was-like-working-on-a-book-with-julie-andrews
I just realized that we have a copy of the version of "Wynken, Blynken and Nod" that you illustrated. I read this book to my daughter so, so many times when she was younger. I remembered the poem fondly from my own childhood, but the beautiful illustrations were really what make reading the book (even over and over and over again, as small children are wont to demand) such a lovely experience. You're a very talented artist. Keep up the good work!
