This was a fun assignment for Michael. He was asked to do a large-size children's book version of LITTLE FUZZY by H. Beam Piper. Not having time to do the whole book, he did this for the cover and PEEKABOO FUZZIES for the endpapers and arranged for his friend David Wenzel to do the interior works.

David is a wonderful fantasy artist best know for his graphic novel retelling of THE HOBBIT. Michael acted as "art director" to be sure that David would portray the Fuzzies with the same look and the book turned out great!

Ed. note: David really didn't need any art direction, it was all a ploy so they could get together and do "naughty" Fuzzy drawings.
