Ian, thanks so much for the thorough background. How lucky Sam is to have parents who appreciate him and who are willing to let him be himself!

While there have been a few picture books about boys who want to wear dresses either self-published or published by small alternative presses such as Lollipop Power, I think "Jacob's New Dress" may be the first to be published by a mainstream U.S. publisher (in this case, Albert Whitman). So I'm curious: what was your path to publication? Was it relatively easy to find a publisher?
