Two Traveling Cats and Miss Stella Book 

Author Liz Marshall

Published by Palmetto Publishing 2025

Series of illustrations from the picture book series that demonstrate a rare and highly marketable skill — the ability to sustain a consistent, expressive cast of animal characters across varied settings, moods, and compositions. From the luggage-pile chaos of departure to the comic shock of Big Ben's chime, each scene delivers distinct energy while keeping the characters immediately recognizable and full of personality. The confident integration of comic-style sound effects and dynamic panel composition reflects a versatility that bridges traditional picture book illustration and the growing graphic novel and early chapter book market — an increasingly valuable crossover skill for today's publishers.
