Rogers, Jacqueline

Some of my notable published work is the Beverly Cleary’s backlist, including the wonderful Ramona series in 2013-14. I loved working with Laura Bush and Jenna Bush Hager on the picture book, “Our Great Big Backyard” in 2016, a NY Times #1 Bestseller.  Recently, I illustrated two picture books for Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman.  The first, “Little Ree” also a bestseller, and then “Little Ree, Best Friends Forever”  came out in 2018.  2019 welcomed “Goblin Moon” published by Harper Collins.  An original halloween poem I wrote and illustrated. While I still love to illustrate other authors’ manuscripts, I have found that my love for developing characters has led me to writing and illustrating my own picture books and now graphic novels. Writing for an older age group is very exciting, and I am working in photoshop and procreate to build a digital style to go with these stories. www.jacquelinerogers.com
