Illustrator: Laura Ferraro Close

Laura Ferraro Close has been drawing ever since she can remember. She has also always had a love for piglets, so this story was fun for her to illustrate. Laura lives outside of Boston, Massachusetts with her husband, two teenage sons, and a sweet dog--but no piglets!
