The Sillybillies Find Stripes and Spots – written and illustrated by Julie Dawson
“Grab your sack and hiking stick.
Wear your best bandana
We’re off to find a secret place
In a high savannah."
And thus, four Sillybillies in bright bandanas set out on a hike in Africa where they do find the secret place, discover all kinds of animals, plus the wisdom and magical powers of a Giraffe and a Zebra. And the joy in getting to know others “different” from them.
Julie’s hope is for all of us to find happiness in expanding our world through new friendships.
For her illustrations in The Sillybillies Find Stripes and Spots, Julie combined her watercolor paintings of the Sillybillies themselves with her digital creations of the many animals and scenes of Africa.
