How the book was made

Below are stories about how the book was written, edited, illustrated, designed and tested! Pictured above is Chloe, one of our 3 cat editors, showing her approval for a few pages in the book. She was also very good at reordering pages. By the way, most of the pages you see were deleted and all of them were redesigned.
