About the Author:
BRANDON REESE is the author-illustrator of the Fantastic Frog and the Amazing Tad Lad graphic novel series and several picture books: Cave Dada, Cave Dada Picky Eater and Oothar the Blue. He has also illustrated album covers and picture books for Grammy Award–winning musicians The Okee Dokee Brothers. He lives in North Carolina with his wife and son.
Q&A with Brandon Reese:
Can you walk us through the moment that frogs in superhero costumes came to be? For some reason, I was on a frog drawing kick. One day I happened to draw one with a superhero cape and gave him a little tadpole sidekick. They seemed like they had a fun story to tell, so I just kept drawing and refining them until a story started to develop.
As both the author and illustrator, how do you balance those roles? At what stage do you choose to write/illustrate? For me writing and illustrating sort of happen in tandem. Typically, I’ll first draw in my sketchbook and as a story starts to take shape, I’ll write notes in the margins. Once I have the basic outline of the story mapped out, I’ll type up a manuscript that includes illustration notes. It’s a ping-ponging of writing and drawing until the story is complete.
Without giving away spoilers how would you describe the dynamic between Fantastic Frog and Tad Lad? Fantastic Frog is a big, lovable dope and Tad Lad is like his precocious, annoying kid brother.
What do you hope children reading this comic book will take away from it? I want kids to laugh their butts off at these two goofy super-frogs’ adventures but also learn a bit about the importance of ecology and biodiversity.
What’s next for Fantastic Frog and Tad Lad? Fantastic Frog and Tad Lad will return in book 2. They’ll travel deeper into the swamp to face off against veracious radioactive slugs and an amalgamation of oil and fowl known as the Sludge Duck!

Q&A with Paul Coccia:
What inspired you to create a fairy who’s different from the traditional fairy stereotype?
The Bear Fairy began as likely an ill-advised joke of mine when I was texting Heather Smith, a fabulous author and friend. Queer men have been referred to as fairies, something I personally love because being a fairy is hardly an insult. There is also a lot of fairy lore on my maternal British side of the family, but oddly on my paternal Italian side too. In fact, my dad’s town is famous for their yearly festival where cloven-hooved fairies dance wildly in the mountains. I drew a doodle of a hirsute, fat, bearded fairy with the legs of a bear. Heather told me to go write a picture book. So, I did.
Why the chips? Why is Bear Fairy so obsessed with them?
I’m not entirely sure where the chip obsession came from, although my nephew teases me whenever I get chip crumbs in my chest hair. It’s near-impossible not to do. Obviously, Spencer, with all his fairy traps (and there is a lot of advice out there on how to catch a fairy), would stumble across an unlikely fairy enjoying some unlikely bait. And who doesn’t love chips? Admittedly, I’d easily be caught by chocolate.
Was there a particular scene you had the most fun writing?
I love the bedtime scene and the Bear Fairy’s snoring, a nod to anyone who has been diagnosed with sleep apnea. I’m convinced the Bear Fairy needs a teeny tiny C-PAP machine. The entire book was fun to write as it’s a fun story, even Mariah!
There was so much humor in this book. Were there any illustrations that made you laugh out loud when you first saw them?
I laughed at the Bear Fairy and Spencer eating ice cream together. They look so self-satisfied and smug. There was no ice cream in the text at that time, but when my editor and I saw the ice cream, I suggested we change it to keep the illustration. She agreed wholeheartedly. It was just too good!
What lessons or message do you hope kids (and even their parents) take away after reading your book?
My hope is always they enjoy reading my book and want to read another book. Readers take away what they need from a story at that time of reading, so I trust they know what they need. One of my takeaways is to accept people as they are, not as you expect them to be. I think kids may have an easier time with this than adults.

The Bear Fairy Written by Paul Coccia Illustrated by Fred Blunt 40 Pages | Ages 3-7 | Hardcover ISBN 9781774885581 | Tundra Books Fairies should be pretty and sparkly and dainty . . . not chubby, not fluffy and NOT lured in by potato chips. But when Spencer catches a fairy in the park, he’s shocked to find that’s exactly what he’s got! The Bear Fairy is no delicate Tinkerbell: he hogs the remote, drops crumbs everywhere and snores like a truck. But he’s still a fairy, and when Spencer’s friend insults the Bear Fairy’s appearance and hurts his feelings, Spencer must step up to defend his new friend. With wit, charm and hilarity, author Paul Coccia and illustrator Fred Blunt have created a modern classic about being proud of who you are and fighting for the people you care about.

Q&A with Esmé Shapiro:
Why did you want to return to Ruthie, a minor character from your first picture book, Ooko, published about ten years ago?
I returned to Ruthie so many years after his little debut ten years ago because — let’s face it — that little blob of a dog has a mysterious glamour that endures through time and space. Every time I would read Ooko, I was drawn to Ruthie’s aura of confidence and would wonder to myself, who is Ruthie?! There were a few clues in the book. His warm, knowing smile was one. The framed pictures of him that adorn his Debbie’s wall were another. It was clear this dog was beloved! And so, one day I caught myself daydreaming about who he was, and all of the places he might go.
Ruthie goes on an adventure in the wild. How did you decide on the woodland creatures Ruthie encounters who aid him on his journey?
For Ruthie, every element of the woods outside of his castle were completely brand-new to him. The creatures he met needed to reflect the variety of animals one might meet in the forest. Ruthie speaks to creatures big (moose), very small (cricket), bushy tailed (squirrel), and winged (owl). What I wanted to make exceedingly clear in all of his conversations with the forest creatures was that none of them had any clue what a “prince” was. Outside in the woods, the animals do not care about a royal hierarchy. They are simply going about their lives, while the story Ruthie tells himself slowly breaks apart so he can make room for a new one — one where he can be a real friend.
How was the art made? Did you use collage in this book? And as writer and illustrator, do you start from the images, or do you begin with a written script?
For Ruthie, my journey started with the manuscript. It was really fun to imagine what could possibly be going on with him while Ooko was on her journey. And because Ooko was written ten years ago, I had to go back to how I worked in my early days. Each illustration is painted traditionally with watercolor and gouache. I paint the background first, almost like a stage backdrop. Then I paint the characters separately, cut them out with an x-acto knife, and collage them into the scene. Sometimes I can use the same “stage” more than once, for different illustrations in the book.
Ruthie is served butterberry pancakes by her queen. What is your go-to breakfast?
In my house, we have chickens and ducks in our yard! So I usually start my day with a fresh egg and a piece of buttered toast! But I wish I had a butterberry pancake every morning. Perhaps if I did, I would be as stylish as Ruthie.
Ruthie imagines his royal subjects are building boats in the shape of him, their prince. If you could own a boat in anyone/anything’s likeness, what would it be?
I would really like to have a boat in the shape of a giant goblin wearing a tiny hat. I think that if I were sailing around the world in a boat in the shape of a goblin, we could persevere through any storm, and scare away any seagull trying to steal our sandwiches.
Every Esme Shapiro book seems to feature fancy boots in some fashion. Why is that?
Because boots give us confidence, even when we feel like rumpled up toads. And I respect them for that!!
Ruthie By Esmé Shapiro 48 Pages | Ages 3-7 | Hardcover ISBN 9781774885659 | Tundra Books Available: March 17, 2026 Ruthie is a prince (a dog) who has it all: a bone, a fish, and a piece of cake he’s been saving for three years. He lives in a castle (a house), is beloved by his queen (his owner), and enjoys beauty-naps, butterberry pancakes and staying squeaky clean with a daily bubble bath. But still, Ruthie longs to explore beyond the castle walls. When a chance to escape presents itself, Ruthie soon finds exploring isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. He is cold, hungry and worst of all: STINKY! Ruthie’s royal subjects (forest animals) do their best to help, but nothing is as perfect as it was in his castle and, worst of all, he misses his queen. Will Ruthie ever be able to find his way home? And will he be able to make some friends along the way?
Ooko By Esmé Shapiro 40 Pages | Ages 3-7 | Hardcover ISBN 9781101918449 | Tundra Books Ooko has everything a fox could want: a stick, a leaf and a rock. Well, almost everything . . .

Maybe if he tries to look like the other foxes, one of the Debbies will play with him too. But when Ooko finally finds his very own Debbie, things don’t turn out quite as he had expected! A quirky, funny, charmingly illustrated story about finding friendship and being true to yourself.
Roy Is Not a Dog By Esmé Shapiro and Daniel Newell Kaufman 48 Pages | Ages 3-7 | Hardcover ISBN 9780735265967 | Tundra Books On Lilypod Lane, everyone knows everything about everybody . . . or so they believe!

An endearingly offbeat picture book that celebrates neighbors and neighborhoods, Roy Is Not a Dog delivers laughs and lessons about accepting others for who they are as well as the risks and rewards of showing your true self.
My Self, Your Self By Esmé Shapiro 48 Pages | Ages 3-7 | Hardcover ISBN 9781774880234 | Tundra Books From the way you button your coat to the way you tap your toes, from the top of your head to your adorable tummy, there are so many reasons to love your self, and so many reasons to be loved.

Q&A with K-Fai Steele:
What was the best part about designing Lena’s look?
I love chickens and I’ve always loved drawing them. I’d been trying to manifest a chicken book to illustrate for a while, so when I got the chance to make Lena I was READY. She came running straight out of central casting.
Were there any challenges in balancing her chicken features with her dinosaur side?
Drawing her as an actual dinosaur was hard. It felt like I was reverse engineering evolution. I also don’t have a lot of practice drawing dinosaurs, I think I’d much rather draw chickens with dinosaur energy.
Do you have a favorite spread?
I loved drawing Lena terrorizing Madeline’s family and the aftermath of them complaining about her being so aggressive. There was nothing in the text that suggested her parents were tending their wounds, so I think that’s a good example of how a drawing can deepen a character or a narrative. I also drew Madeline unscathed because I don’t think Lena would ever hurt a kid like Madeline (who I see as a stand-in for the reader). These two drawings give you a sense of how tough but also considerate and sweet she is! Also I really love the detail of the bandaid on Madeline’s dad’s balding head; I feel like that hit a really good humor note.
Lena is such an expressive chicken, showing a whole range of emotions. How did you make such an egg-spressive chicken face?
I love drawing chickens so much that it’s gotten easy for me to use them as templates for emotions. I know exactly what their eyes, eyebrows and beaks are going to do when they’re happy, sad, anxious, etc. I think that’s what happens when you know how to draw something so well and why drawing is so powerful; once you figure something out you can do anything with it.
The book has a die-cut cover. If money were no object, what other special features would you have included in this book?
I originally wanted a lenticular cover so that it would flicker between a chicken and a dinosaur as you walked past it, but I think this idea of a die cut cover (art director Gigi Lau’s idea) works beautifully. Hmm but if money were no object, I’d have it so that every time you read this book you’d have Lena in your lap reading it with you, pointing out all the funny details.
Books by K-Fai Steele:
Lena the Chicken (But Really a Dinosaur!) Written by Linda Bailey Illustrated by K-Fai Steele 56 Pages | Ages 3-7 | Hardcover ISBN 9781774880135 | Tundra Books Lena lives in a chicken coop, and she looks a lot like a chicken. But deep down, she’s convinced that she’s a . . . DINOSAUR! She can feel it in her bones. Lena just doesn’t understand the scaredy chickens in her family, and they don’t understand her either, with her ferociousness and big ideas. The people on the farm are also baffled . . . except for little Madeline, who thinks Lena has PERSONALITY. And then, when a dastardly weasel turns up and threatens the coop, Lena’s fearful family chickens out AGAIN. It’s up to Lena to unleash her inner dinosaur like never before — to save the coop and show this silly bunch of chickens how to stand up for themselves. And when Madeline’s science fair project shows that chickens are the closest living relatives in the world to dinosaurs, Lena’s family finally starts to see that — holy hen house! — they are all dinosaurs too!
That Always Happens Sometimes Written by Kiley Frank Illustrated by K-Fai Steele 42 Pages | Ages 4-8 | Hardcover ISBN 9781984852434 | Knopf BFYR Do you have a list of things to do every morning before school, but you get . . . distracted? Or maybe you’re the only one with tennis balls on the feet of your chair and your teacher has to remind you to keep your sounds to yourself? Or maybe you like to listen to the way water sloshes in your stomach when you run down the hall, slo-mo, after the water fountain? That always happens sometimes to Max in this warm, hilarious picture book that humorously chronicles the pitfalls and celebrates the successes of a very familiar kid . . . one who may not be the most compliant or organized but who is full of energy, creativity, and kindness.
Lone Wolf Goes to School Written by Kiah Thomas Illustrated by K-Fai Steele 56 Pages | Ages 6-9 | Hardcover ISBN 9780823457779 | Neal Porter Books Wolf has just the right amount of friends: NONE. He loves to be alone. Unfortunately, everywhere he goes, other people are there too. At school, the teacher says if he can’t get along with the other students, he has to leave. So he goes to the movies. More people! He tries the beach. No peace there, either. He flees to the remote peak of a mountain, and even there, someone comes along to bother him. Finally, Wolf hatches a plan. All these people arrive for a party at Wolf’s house . . . while Wolf makes a quick exit.
Lone Wolf Goes to the Library Written by Kiah Thomas Illustrated by K-Fai Steele 48 Pages | Ages 6-9 | Hardcover ISBN 9780823457809 | Neal Porter Books Wolf’s library book is overdue, and the librarian says if it’s not returned today, he will never ever be able to check a book out again. Wolf loves books. He can’t let this happen. Even worse: the book is due by the end of story time. Story time means tons of children having noisy fun. Can Wolf get to the library in time while avoiding his nemeses —other people — and preserve both his books . . . and his sanity?
Lone Wolf Goes on Vacation Written by Kiah Thomas Illustrated by K-Fai Steele 48 Pages | Ages 6-9 | Hardcover ISBN 9780823457793 | Neal Porter Books Wolf is excited for a peaceful, refreshing vacation: There, there’ll be nobody he knows.

And worst of all, some familiar old characters have somehow chosen the same dream destination. Will Wolf ever find solitude? Maybe the best vacation is a trip to an all-too-familiar place . . .
At Tundra Books, we want you to get to know and love our creators as much as you know and love their books. Our creator spotlight series will introduce you to the people behind some of your favorite titles . . . this week, say hello to Suzy Levinson!
About the Author:
SUZY LEVINSON is a children’s author and poet. Originally from Massachusetts, she now lives in New York with her husband and their most excellent cat. Her poems have appeared in numerous anthologies and magazines, including Highlights and Cricket. Her critically acclaimed debut picture book, Animals in Pants, was published in 2023.
Q&A with Suzy Levinson:
The combination of poetry, dinosaurs and driving is such a fun and unique idea. How did the idea for this book come to be?
It all started when I was deciding on a birthday gift to send my little nephew in Montreal. He wanted candy, but I figured I could do a bit better than that. I googled “cool presents for three-year-olds,” and this extremely disturbing-looking set of toy cars popped up. They were dinosaur heads, just the heads, on wheels. Really weird. I scoffed, then immediately bought them because how could I not? It was ridiculous! Some evil genius had taken two random things that kids love, dinosaurs and cars, and smashed them together in a way that utterly defied reason! Then I thought, hmm . . . I could do that, too. That’s when the title, Dinos That Drive, hit me like a lightning bolt, and I knew it was time to get to work on an exciting new poetry collection.
How much dinosaur research did you have to do?
First things first, I sat down and wrote a list of the dinosaurs I knew off the top of my head, which was about three. So I obviously had to read some dinosaur books to fill out that list to twenty or so. Then came the task of matching up specific dinosaur traits to specific modes of transportation, which entailed more research. Because I couldn’t just plop random dinos in random vehicles, willy-nilly. These poems were only going to work if I maintained a certain level of weird internal logic, where the nonsensical made sense. For instance, I learned that “brontosaurus” means “thunder lizard,” so of course he had to ride a motorcycle! I mean, let’s face it: Thunder Lizard is the ultimate biker name.
You cannot miss the humor in this book. How do you make sure your poems are playful, funny and easy to read?
The most important part is establishing a silly and subversive premise right at the top, like hello, welcome to a world where dinosaurs drive. That’s the reality we live in now, take it or leave it. From there, my only job is to present perfectly reasonable scenarios in this weird driving-dino world, each written in rhyming verse. Writing in rhyme is the biggest challenge. It’s also my favorite part. There’s nothing more fun than writing poems that sound loose and conversational, all while maintaining strict-strict-STRICT rhyme scheme and meter! I’m basically creating impossible word puzzles that I then have to solve. The only way to ensure that these poems stay playful is if I’m super-duper tough with myself. No stumbly and distracting meter, no flat and uninspired word choices, no awkward phrasing! I have to read my work aloud, over and over again, plus share it with trusted critique partners who won’t hold back. The poems should feel effortless, almost like I didn’t tear my hair out making them just so.
What do you love most about writing poetry for kids?
I didn’t read much poetry when I was a kid, but I was fairly obsessed with Shel Silverstein’s collections. A Shel Silverstein poem always felt like a thrilling gift. Like a dino head on wheels, you might say. The fact that I can now sit at my desk whenever I want and play around with language, find the perfect word combination that paints a picture, that makes kids laugh and see the world a little differently? Well, that feels like a pretty thrilling gift, too.
Do you have a favorite dinosaur?
I’ll admit, I’ve never thought about my favorite dinosaur before. But now that you’re asking . . . I’m going with stegosaurus! By all accounts, a gentle herbivore. Meaning if I ever bump into one, he probably won’t eat me.
