"Bill" by Heather Morrell (a children's book)
Published March 29, 2010
Is there something you have always wanted to do? Perhaps learn to paint? Write a book? How about author and illustrate a children’s book?
My dear friend Heather Morrell has. She just finished it a few months ago in fact. This is Bill, her adorably illustrated “learn to read” kid’s book, with its twenty pages worth of duck adventures. And, yes, those are watercolor illustrations—the girl knows how to write AND paint.
I received a sneak copy because she loves me. Then I begged her to let me post about it. Her talented, marketing, husband, Scott, helped her publish it for their children, although I suspect their kiddos aren’t the only ones who’ll want a copy (seeing as my own 4-year-old is already obsessed with the thing). Am I wrong?
What’s the mood noise of the moment (thanks to Gretchen)?

Oh my goodness! Congrats, Heather! Can I order a few copies? Thanks for letting us know, Mary, since Heather wouldn’t “toot her own horn”. =D

That is soooo great Heather. That family never ceases to amaze me… I wish they would spread the talent out more… instead of hoarding it all in one family.;-)
