Pointy nose, hairless tail, clumsy with acorns, and bad at climbing -- Fluffless is the worst squirrel in the park. 
But he is determined to keep up with the others -- all the way up, up, up, to the top of the great oak tree! 
But a couple of spectators down below cast doubt on his efforts and leave Fluffless thinking maybe he really is just nuts.

The latest from Matt Bergin ("Blank Slater, the Boy With the Dry-Erase Face," "Lesky Lee, Monster of Monsters") is a twist 
on "The Ugly Duckling," where the scruffy protagonist doesn't even realize how much he has to learn about himself. 
Illustrations by D.L. Skandle ("Little Duckie's Day").

Rats!

There's a World Rat Day!? What an odd thing to discover while fast at work on my next picture book project, which happens to feature a rat who thinks he's a squirrel. And how serendipitous that that day (April 4th) is the deadline for submissions for a rat-themed art exhibition?

Reaching out now. Let's see if Fluffless can make his debut on a bigger stage than Amazon CreateSpace.

Duck Season! Squirrel Season!

All this talk about Monsters...but we've got some real-world creatures scuttling around these parts, as well! Check out this first sketch by D.L. Skandle for our upcoming collaboration:

Some friends of Fluffless, by D.L. Skandle. More to come in "Fluffless, A Squirrel's Tail"

D.L. may be providing only illustrations for Fluffless, A Squirrel's Tail, but she is a one-woman show when it comes to her Little Duckie series. The first Little Duckie book, "Little Duckie's Day," is available now, animated shorts are up on her site, and a second book in the series is coming soon. 

Watch D.L.'s site for more on Little Duckie, and watch this space for more on Fluffless as it develops.
