We are finishing the manuscript for Book #2 while waiting on the final illustrations for Book #1 (what else can we do?), and we'd love your FEEDBACK! 

Right now we have Ruby and the Hurricane Rescue, but we thought we could do better. 

Please vote on what title you like best below OR suggest your own in the comments.

The illustration phase of Ruby and the Off-Road Rally is nearly complete! We just received an email from Alvin saying he is putting the finishing touches on the front and end pages.

We are also looking for a fun font that captures the adventure of the rally while still being kid-friendly (not an easy task, believe it or not).

We hope you and your Valentine enjoy today and have a great weekend!

If you want to forward this email to a friend, we'd love for them to pre-order Ruby and the Off-Road Rally here: https://rubygoesoffroad.com/

Dearest backers,

We hope the start of 2025 has been going well for you!

Ruby and Scout are still being illustrated by our talented illustrator, Alvin Adhi.

He is putting the final touches on the customized vehicles requested by 13 of our amazing backers!

We are looking forward to seeing the book in the fully illustrated phase, as this is almost always the most exciting part of a children's book!

Backers can preview one of Alvin's illustrations of Ruby and Scout relaxing under the twinkling night desert sky after training for the rally.

Julie just finished the educational materials so Ruby and the Off-Road Rally can be utilized in primary classrooms!

Let us know if you have any questions or leave a comment to cheer us on!

When Alvin Adhi agreed to illustrate Ruby and the Off-Road Rally, we knew we were in good hands. 

Not only is Alvin incredibly talented, but he is very attentive to the details and has brought fun facial expressions to the characters.

Things are moving quickly with the book, and we are excited to see how Ruby and Scout come to life while off-roading in the desert.

Scroll down for a backer-only sneak peek of the beginning of the story.

More to come!
