Are you afraid of heights? I think I have become more cautious as I age and heights are a bit more challenging. I definitely can’t jump from a height without worrying about my knees. #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration #alligatorart #picturebooks

My wife is making a calendar of pics of our two silly little dogs. The pictures are getting more and more elaborate, and this one includes the cats too! . . #littledogs #funnydogs #dogs #doglovers
Lauren Hoffmann@mrshoffy.bsky.social · 4d agoHappy August! Here’s this month’s dog pic. I’ve nearly got enough pics for a full calendar. Had to get the cats in on one, much to their horror. #cutedogs #funnydogs #dogs #doglovers #dogsky #littledogs #chugdog #chugdogs

Do you like a big dog? So big they don’t even know their own size? So big that they take up half the couch? So big they walk you instead? All dogs are great big or small. What’s your preference? #kidlitart #kidlitillustration #kidlit #kidlitillustrators #kidlitartists

Do you dance in public? I avoid it at all costs. Unfortunately I don’t have rhythm or skill in this area. But at home I let loose sometimes to my family’s enjoyment. #kidlitart #kidlitillustration #kidlit #kidlitillustrators #kidlitartists
