Over and Under the Snow is a sweet picture book by Kate Messner, illustrated by Christopher Silas Neal. Simple images capture the chilly winter feel as animals cope with the joys and challenges of winter weather.
In this interview Chris describes his process as he creates the drawings for this book.
"What imagery will be on this page? How is the overall pacing of the book? Are there enough little animals and big animals, close ups and wide shots? These are the kinds of questions I would try to answer while drawing. Later on, I would work out how each creature would be drawn and what each tree will look like."
I think I'll be wanting my own copy of this one!
