Karen Kilpatrick knows her ABCs and likes to tell stories, so she makes up combinations of words on the computer! She also is a mom of three, runs a nonprofit called Authors4Education, is the Marketing Chair on the board of directors for Women in Toys, and created the plush toy brand MeBears. Some of Karen's other books include When Pencil Met Eraser and When Pencil Met the Markers. Germn Blanco likes doodling so he draws some caricatures and then puts them on the computer, voila. He is also a graphic designer, a former Creative Director for a global toy company, and a member of the board of directors for Authors4Education. Germn illustrated the books When Pencil Met Eraser and When Pencil Met the Markers.
"""Readers will enjoy the amusing protagonist and whimsical scenes. Through the llama’s experiences, Kilpatrick emphasizes the importance of learning about others and avoiding presumptions. Some moments include informative educational elements, including a diagram of the llama’s anatomical features and a list of “REASONS TO ALSO LOVE LLAMAS.” The children are a diverse group, portrayed with an array of different skin tones.A sometimes-silly but sincere story about respecting differences."" - Kirkus Reviews"
