Christian Carl
I’ve helped raise three kids ages 27, 17 and six. Though the world has changed a lot over nearly three decades of parenthood—one thing hasn’t. Kids are impetuous, impatient, obsessive, selfish, clingy, loud, careless, moody, imaginative, loving, caring, beautiful, and oddly smart little beings who just need two things from us – patience and a plan. Land of Lots is a faraway planet, but it hits close to home for me. And I hope it does for you too.
Joyce Fan
Joyce Fan is Hong Kong born, Portland Oregon raised artist. Her illustrative work is often reminiscent of her childhood imaginations and its whimsical adventures. Art, food, toys and music are among the many things that keep her creative juices flowing.
Chuck and Sue Willis
Together they have been in film and advertising collectively for over half a century and working with author Christian Carl on Land of Lots for what seems like a millennium. They hope the books bring you lots of laughs, learning and love.
We’d love to hear from you!
