Thanks guys, as ever it's really encouraging to hear feedback from the forum!
Here are a few more images.

Thank you. Yes, they are all mine. Thats's what I do for a living, Illustrator and Designer.

Bruce, I'm looking into why it is not on Amazon.ca. Still very new at this and have had to jump through a lot of unexpected hoops to get it this far.
By the way, beautiful shot of your son!

Here are another couple of pics.
So far there is Bert the Beetle, Cedric the Snail, Freddy the Frog, and these are Terry the Turtle and Vera the Vole.

Thanks Sherry. If you like the book, share it around. I would love it to be successful enough to be able to do this full time.
The problem is I really enjoy the illustration and writing part and hate the marketing end which means that I probably won't be hobnobbing with J.K. Rowings or bathing in pink champagne any time soon
