這位插畫家在Ame Dyckman的Wolfie The Bunny受到關愛。故事中的場景和角色的呈現,非常有味道。如在文本:Wolfie slept through the night. Dot did not. 兔子整晚睡不好,頭上帶著探照燈,照著Wolfie而Wolfie的影子是在微笑的狼。
Ame的新書-Horrible BEAR!是和Wolfie The Bunny同一個插畫家-Zachariah OHora合作。熊住在山上的洞穴,小女孩在山下玩風箏,風箏飛進了洞裏,好端端落在睡著熊的肚子上,熊一翻身就把風箏壓壞了。小女孩大叫"Horrible Bear!" 小女孩到處告訴別人"Horrible Bear!" 故事的結尾成了"Sweet Bear. 插畫家承襲了先前的畫風,小女孩紅紅的頭髮好似一頂帽子但一點都不突兀,反而增加小女孩具爆發力的性格。插畫家在書後提到為了這本書買了很多的風箏同時也克服使用紫色的恐懼。OHora本身也有作品如My Cousin, Momo, The Not So Quiet Librian 及No Fits, Nilson!, Stop snoring, Bernard, 前者Momo是一隻飛鼠, Nilson是一隻猩猩, Bernard是一隻海獺 。

I met a golden retriever,
He never brought me gold.
The starfish didn't twinkle,
The Newfoundland was old.
Can't rope and rid the bullfrog.
The hedgehog isn't hoggish.
No dragon in a dragonfly.
The prairie dog's not doggish.
Carpenter ants aren't builders.
Pinschers never pinch.
Boxers have no boxing gloves.
An inchworm's not an inch.
I find this all confusing,
but research doesn't lie.
她的結論是
跟她的雙親要一台顯微鏡(microscope)
