"I LOVE the illustrations in MARCO! It is not only the style of her art, but the author/illustrator (she does both!) was able to capture the look of 'Right Now' in her newest book. The book feels real to me. I can easily put myself in the story with Marco, not set in some far away land or in another time period, the story is relatable for my children and I. You can see Marco’s story come alive through the beautiful illustrations inside! I'm a fan!"
