I love it, Hazel and much success to you! :)

Following you now Miss Hazel :0) What a wonderful contest!
Looks like a beautifully illustrated book! Well done Hazel! Best wishes to you with Sleeping Bear and always!
I almost forgot to enter! Thanks for opportunity, Hazel! :D
A Hazel Mitchell original drawing + Sleeping Bear book = an offer I can't refuse!
Good luck with your new book, Hazel. It's darling and Sleeping Bear Press and Amy Lennox are favorites in our SCBWI Region. Two of our authors have sold to this publisher after the editor guest-spoke here. I agree--the art is appealing. ~Connie Heckert
Oh, thanks for inviting me! I'm not sure why I thought I was already following, but maybe that's just the Facebook stuff. (I have holiday brain right now.) I so wish I had known you when Mark & Kira were tiny, but it is still awesomeness! ♥ Tracy
Your work makes me smile.
Love it.
Kari-Lynn Winters

I love all your artwork. If I win, bonus. If not, I will as always be your friend.
I'm a watercolor artist and always appreciate the works of another artist. I absolutely love your illustration posted above and would consider it an honor to display it in my home.
