Loren Long has illustrated books by Barack Obama, Madonna and Amanda Gorman. His No. 1 best seller, "The Yellow Bus," took him in a different direction β one that required time, patience and toothpicks. " To ease this process β and to help himself visualize the bus's world β Long decided to build a three-dimensional model of the valley where the book takes place."
