"I am an author-illustrator of children's books - and yet - I must confess I don't do the books for the kids.

I write them so I can illustrate them."

-- Bill Peet

“My teachers are saying that this is one of our greatest lessons that we have to remember if we're ever going to get out of this problem that we're in, not only with war, but socially and environmentally and everything that is being destroyed.
