During the height of the COVID contagion, a youngster is worried about his Grandpa, who lives alone. Out of concern, they stay apart. In toned black-and-white illustrations, we see their realities, in their respective homes. In color illustrations, we see how they engaged prior to COVID, and how they imagine being together again. At core, the story is about missing those we care about - about being missed, about being cared about.

Autorenporträt
Joseph Howard Cooper published book, movie, and stage-play appreciations at the Huffington Post. His "Pauses and Moments" stories appeared at PsychologyToday.com. His one-act plays were performed at the New Haven International Festival of Arts & Ideas. More recently, his screenplays - the semi-autobiographical "Life after Lebanon" and the whimsical "Escapes: The Grandpa Chronicles" - have been recognized in a dozen global film-festival script competitions. Cooper's own experience as a grandfather during the COVID-19 pandemic inspired "Grandpa's lonely, isn't he?" his debut picture book. He lives in Culver City, California. DeWitt Studios was established by Robin and Patricia: identical twin illustrators. After graduating from Maryland Institute College of Art they began their careers in the Baltimore area and quickly discovered that they were confusing art directors all over town. In 1983 they combined their portfolios when an opportunity to do a children's book for Stemmer House publishers became available. They have been working together since then and have worked for many publishers including Time-Life, Charlebridge, Stemmer House, FriesenPress and Lawley Publishing. In 1998 Robin returned to Maryland Institute to obtain her masters in digital imaging. Both Robin and Patricia have taught classes in Michigan in book illustration and character design. Robin enjoys gardening; Pat enjoys cooking; and they both love their spotted herd of Dalmatian dogs.
