Endpapers for the end of your week!

Let's Talk Illustrators #287: Caitlin Dale Nicholson

Earlier this month Caitlin Dale Nicholson published Ninitohtênân / We Listen,  translated by Leona Morin-Neilso and the third book in her Nôhkom series. Ninitohtênân / We Listen is the follow-up to niwîcihâw / I Help (2008) and Nipêhon / I Wait (2017), and getting a chance to talk to Caitlin about the full series––which is almost two decades in the making––was an honor. Enjoy our conversation!

Endpapers for the end of your week!

Down to the Last Detail: The Shadow and the Ghost

I already showed off the case cover/dust jacket combo earlier this week, but it's absolutely worth showing off the endpaper/copyright combo for this book, too! I'm telling you, design teams are stepping up their copyright game, and I am loving it!
