I'd like to recognize and appreciate how exceptionally captivating these illustrations are. Karen's illustrations [0] bring whimsical beauty to this quirky book - it's a perfect match.

In the sea of "Corporate Memphis" [1][2], it's pretty refreshing to see the good stuff.

PS - Feedback to the author: Dogs really love JPEGs in the PDF, so try to use SVG format instead.

Thank you! Karen's illustrations are indeed wonderful. And thanks for the tip re SVG. The originals are large raster images and the JPGs with lossy compression seem to be much smaller than a PNG embedded within a SVG. I'm open to suggestions though. The printed book will use the uncompressed images of course. :)
