Did you have to shuffle these around or anything to make them match?? This works WAY too well!

Minh said...

Thanks Tanita! All the images are from "The Pigeon Wants a Puppy!", but I did have to shuffle the pages around a bit. But for the most part, the Pigeon did the bulk of the work.

Two of the pages are switched:

For in that sleep of death
What dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil
Must give us pause

Are the lines in the right order.

Otherwise: brilliant!

Thanks for the catch, K. Corrected!

Hi Matt from RIF,

I'm very flattered that you thought Mo did this, but it was just me inspired by Mo's illustrations. But like I said, very flattered!
