His mastery of quality with the perfect amount of quantity, is something that I look to achieving and translating into other mediums of art. Not to mention he has a great art-style that fits perfectly for what he makes. Aside from that, his games have a great way of implied story telling, based on your surroundings, that give you an idea of what has happened, without actually saying much. He has enough content in his games to keep it exciting and new, without anything being too much or too little – the perfect amount to enjoy. His content is something that I’ve consistently enjoyed for over a decade. * Derek Yu is an indie game developer, who in my opinion, is and example of perfected craft. His art-style, character development, situational creativity, originality, and story progression, is something I look towards as a point of reference for what’s good. I’ve been a huge fan of his work for a long time. #Desperados 3 rosie series* Hirohiko Araki is a Manga artist from Japan, who made the popular, active-running series Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure. I get inspiration from all over the creative spectrum, but if I had to narrow it down to a few people, I would go with Hirohiko Araki, Herbie Hancock, and Derek Yu. Who are some of your artistic inspirations? Experimenting with poses, facial expressions, lighting, clothing, and more – in order to represent a feeling or to describe a scene without the use of words, is something I’ve always had fun with, and I’m always seeking to get better at. What’s bad: The plot can move a little slowly at times.I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember, but I started drawing comics in elementary school with my friends. What’s good: Love the cupcake recipes scattered throughout the book – can’t wait to try one out. These are well-written, non-offensive and highly enjoyable books for pre- and young teens. And finally, a big wedding announcement leads the way into the next book, Something New. Hayley also begins to show that she may have a crush on someone. In this installment, the big plot event is a talent show, and it brings Artie back into the picture. Hayley still misses time with her ex-BFF, Artie, but loves spending time with her new BFF, Meghan. They still miss spending time with their father, but things are getting better. This installment of “Confectionately Yours” picks up when Hayley and her family are settling into their new lives. What’s bad: Children ready for chills won’t even find goose bumps here. What’s good: Energetic plots and monsters will encourage reluctant readers to ask for more. What will happen as Alexander takes on the creepy balloon goons with twisty arms?

When the new kid in town, Alexander, stumbles upon the “notebook of doom,” he uncovers top secret information on monsters-lots and lots of monsters. Now children can enjoy this series, as well as “Looniverse” and “Boris on the Move.” This is an easy-to-read story that doesn’t speak down to the reader but involves him in high-interest plot content. Scholastic’s early chapter book line keeps expanding. The Notebook of Doom: Rise of the Balloon Goons What’s good: Gentle text and vintage-style illustrations make this a very soothing tale. Children will easily be able to see their own behavior in Rosie’s adventure and learn that facing things you fear with someone you love can make overcoming your fears a little easier. Salerno’s illustrations evoke a vintage feel fans of Curious George will find very pleasing. There is a lovely tone to this take with soft lyrical text that offers as much interest as the illustrations. Eventually, they huddle together in his bedroom until the storm passes. She thinks he might be a little scared too. Rosie’s boy tries his best to comfort her with singing but it does little good. She looks all over but she knows the thunder can still see her.
