Illustrator, Diane Woods, fell in love at the first sight of Willie in a photograph sent to her by author, Jane Helen Cooper. She and Jane have delighted in the entire process of bringing Willie and the Tomato Garden to life. May you share their delight in this story of an adorable dog who learns a valuable lesson about sharing.

Diane was born in Winona, MN, raised in San Francisco, graduated high school in Poitiers, France, and has adored living in the wine country north of San Francisco where her daughter, Kenna, lives. She now loves living and painting in Austin, TX. Her work may be viewed at: https://dianewoodsdesign.com/
