A Children's Book

[Druidus]

I'm writing a children's book with my father based on an Inuit legend. I've actually reversed the Inuit legend, however, much as someone reversed the story of the "Three Little Pigs". We've got a lot of it worked out, but we need illustrations. Would anyone here like to draw for the book? I'll credit those who draw in the book, but I don't think I can provide a percentage of the profits to everyone who draws in it. In light of this, I'd provide the normal percentage of profits attributed to the illustrator to RF.

Any volunteers?

The beginning of the book about the legend by Robert Munsch and Michael Kusugak:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/1550370081/ref=sib_fs_top/002-9247797-0207238?%5Fencoding=UTF8&p=S008&checkSum=5nNcq4voeERSTaFG98h1MlzIiKxV0PNaL47BBSnMDn8%3D#reader-page

I intend to flip the story around, doing it from the Qallupilluiq point of view, and placing the human's as the bad ones.

I searched long and hard for the original legend, but have, as yet, been unable to find it. I'll contact Michael Kusugak (whom I have met personally) and ask him if he knows it. I'll also visit the Elder's Home, as someone there likely knows it. I hope to do a series of these books based on legends.

Sounds Good Dru; I would offer to draw if I could, but I am absolutely rubbish at drawing! Good luck with the book though!

Talk to Master Vigil, Dru. I recall he has a talent for drawing.

Depending on what type of illustrating you're looking for, I'd be happy to submit some samples.

What sort of pictures. While my art is usually more gothic and macabre themed, I might be able to come up with something that won't give little kids nightmares.

I'd be happy to help if you tell me what you want.

Thanks for volunteering! I'll soon send you more information on what to draw.
