Melissa Sweet said that trying to write her first book, was initially like walking around the Library of Congress. But then a love of words (like pluck, dawdle, trouble, and voila) took over. She is the illustrator of many fine children's books. Reviewers have described her unique mixed-media illustrations as "exuberant," "outstanding," and "a creative delight." Red in all of its hues-scarlet, carmine, fuchsia-remains her favorite color. She lives in Rockport, Maine, with her family and dog, Rufus.Sweet, Melissa is the author of 'Carmine', published 2008 under ISBN 9780618997176 and ISBN 0618997172.
