Traditionally published author Diane Z. Shore has never met any of the illustrators that have created the artwork for her children's books. She has found that the editors in traditional publishing houses often don't want illustrators to be influenced or limited by the authors. They want to give the illustrators artistic license. This was initially difficult for her to understand, but she learned that despite some creative differences, the editors and illustrators know what they are doing. Shore's manuscript School Bus Bop about a bus that drives around and gobbles up its stops, became the dinosaur-themed Bus-a-Saurus Bop once it got into the hands of the illustrator. This book is still in print after fourteen years, proving that authors must trust their editors and illustrators.
