Way-back-when, when I had a little more free time on my hands, I would draw holiday versions of my characters around this time of year so that Ang and I could make cards, ornaments, tags, etc.

I was hoping to create some Kenny and the Dragon images to share this year, but I’ve been so darned busy with holiday stuff, book-making and being a dad that I just couldn’t get to it…hopefully I’ll get them finished next year.

But, in the meantime, here are direct links to the holiday images (with directions on how to make ornaments) from my first three books, Jimmy Zangwow, Ted and Spider & Fly…feel free to share them to make with your friends, family or in the classroom. Enjoy and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Tony DiTerlizzi: Never abandon imagination.

Imagination is a world of possibility that exists within each of us. It is what makes us uniquely human. It is our creative fingerprint that touches and influences the world around us. Imagination is essential to art and science; to innovation and prosperity. It gives us hope, calls us to action and leads to change.

Whether it’s fairies, dragons, robots or aliens, all of my children’s book characters are siblings born of my imagination – an imagination strengthened through years of encouragement from family, teachers and friends. While so many others abandoned it during their transition from childhood to adulthood, I fiercely held onto mine, hoping for a day when I could share it to inspire the next generation of dreamers. Innovators. World changers.

Imagination empowers us to envision and create a reality of what could be. We must hold it dear, foster it and never abandon it.

Holiday Fun!
