Chris Monroe
Known for her Monkey with a Tool Belt Books, a comic in the Duluth News Tribune and countless illustrations by her featured in everything from event flyers to album cover art, Chris Monroe's style and sense of humor has become easily recognized in the area. Her last book, Bug on a Bike, was released just a few months ago and it has been added as one of the "Best Children's Books of 2014" by the editors of Amazon.com. Apparently readers of all ages appreciate Monroe's books or we have more youth readers than we thought.
Runner up: Margi Preus (Heart of a Samurai/Shadow on The Mountain)
