In this book, I included my early sketches, storyboard, notes about the editing process, and a behind-the-scenes look at how I painted the cover. In this new edition, George and Harold, who are now older, have gone back to add full color and edit their spelling mistakes.

Scratchboard is an illustration board with a specifically prepared surface of hard white chalk.
