Every now and then, we get the lovely opportunity to visit with an author or illustrator in the office. This week we were doubly fortunate ― John and Cathryn Sill, the husband and wife team behind the About… and the About Habitats… series stopped by yesterday to share some art with us!

I would love to see a book on dolphins. I have not heard of this series, so my choices may have been done. If so, I apologize. I'd also like to read about the Tasmanian Devil, Hawaiian Island habitat(s), and the coral reefs in the Caribbean Ocean.
