Choice Sophie

There's a very good interview with the wonderful Sophie Blackall over at Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast.

In this interview, Blackall talks about working on illustrating a story of her own for the first time. It's called Are You Awake, and will be published in fall 2009. There is a sneak peak at an illustration for the work-in-progress on the 7-IMP site:
