 “Cat-themed pop culture puns permeate the story, as do Lombardo’s scraggly b&w cartoons, which are a big part of its unflagging energy and humor.”

Micah Player began his illustration career desiging and illustrating for Paul Frank Industries. He is the author/illustrator of the picture books Chloe, Instead and the Lately Lily series (Chronicle Books).

Micah's Instagram, where he shares his own illustrations and words express his feelings about the current state of the world, and is a terrific place to get to know him. @micahplayer
