Children's book author and illustrator Henry Cole with Lori Walsh.

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

Henry Cole has worked on more than 170 children's books as an illustrator and author. His latest book is "Forever Home," a charming story about a boy and dog destined to be together.

He discusses how he got his foot in the publishing door. Plus, what story can a picture tell to even the youngest reader?

Cole will be at the Young Readers Festival of Books in Rapid City this week.
