ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Daniel R. Levine is a trial lawyer by day, practicing in the ever
changing area of labor and employment law. The 39 year old “kid”
lives in Boca Raton, Florida with his wife, Corinne, and their
children, Benjamin, 8, and Elijah, 5. Daniel is a New York Yankees
and Florida Gators fanatic and enjoys singing karaoke whenever
he gets the chance.

ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR:
Delray Beach artist Michael Blumenthal lives in a world of vivid
colors and rapid expansion. His otherworldly oil paintings capture
the essence of animals and air with an occasional hint of blue sky.
Michael brings to life wild, bizarre lost worlds that exist only in
his fertile imagination. You could say Blumenthal has a fantastical
perspective of the world. The 33 year old Florida resident is,
however, hesitant to categorize his style.

We truly love this book.
My boys Zayn and Taurin have had me read it to them about 50 times. In fact, yesterday Zayn pulled out the paints and enthusiastically painted the page in the back of the book (that you are ALLOWED to paint/color on!) and Taurin
was more than annoyed that his brother had ‘wrecked it’.
My query is, can you place a copy of that page here so I can print more Wax Island pages for them to illustrate?
Love the book Dan & Michael – great work!
