Friday Fan Art (from France)
I often forget that my books are translated and available in many other languages and in many other countries around the world. I think this is mostly due to the fact that I am so deep in DiTerlizziland exploring my created worlds like planet Orbona, Roundbrook, or the Spiderwick Estate. But I do get reminders (like last month’s UK tour) and in the form of wonderful letters that arrive in my mailbox from fans who live very far away.
Thirteen year-old Isaac, from Saint André, France, sent me some fantastic drawings including printouts from his very own field guide that he crafted. Check it out:
…looks like he encountered a changeling…
…and even the mythological guivre, indigenous to France. These aquatic drakes are similar to wyverns.
Great work, Isaac! I can’t wait to hear what you think of The Search for WondLa. The french edition will be released very soon by Pocket Jeunesse (who translated the Spiderwick series as well as Kenny & the Dragon), so keep on the lookout for it.
Keep drawing, keep dreaming!

Wow, I think this kid is really good at drawing for his age. I wish I was that imaginative at 13!
