Hi, I'm the artist who created Anne & Charles,
a fun mouse-couple who discovers an "extension of love."
A true story about the author & her husband adopting their son. I enjoyed creating the characters "drawing" on experiences and
the nice people my wife & I met... in adopting our family!
The story behind the story...
Betsey was looking for an illustrator... Chuck was interested in illustrating a children's book. When they met, imagine their surprise when Chuck learned that the characters' names (chosen long before their meeting)
were "the names of Chuck & his wife Ann!!"
" My nieces love Annie's
bunny-slippers! "

Oh, your book moved me to tears.
It's wonderful! So sweet and sincere, it made my day. Thank you, Chuck, for spreading the gift of Love. <3

Just a Little more Love
is a wonderful story about
adoption written so that a child can understand what a positive experience it can be! What a great way to show how love can impact both the parents and the child. I think children and adults will enjoy this story.
This heartwarming tale of Anne and Charles, portrayed as adorable mice, truly resonates with young children
as they explore themes of love, family,
and new beginnings.
