Synopsis

Arrrr, here be treasure! A hapless pirate digs for rubies, diamonds, and coins, but after three attempts, two naps, and one lousy map, he's unearthed nothing but a sore back and serious misgivings. Blistering barnacles! It's left to his trusty dog to save the day, and fortunately, he comes through in a big way. With die-cut holes and suprises at every turn, Dig Here is one lobster of a different color!

“Bursts of unexpected color make the busy illustrations worth diving into, from edge to electric edge, as the pirate bumbles his way toward a revelation that will tickle young readers.”―ForeWord Reviews

I am the fiercest pirate in the world.
This is my beard. You can tell it is real because I cry if you pull it.
This is my peg leg. I am borrowing it.
This is my hole. We will get to that in a minute.
This is my eye patch. It is very convincing at parties.
And this is my treasure.
You cannot see it, because it is buried. That is what fierce pirates do.
You do not believe me? Here―you will dig with me, and then you will see for yourself.

Olga Zakharova (a.k.a., FaveteArt) is a self-taught illustrator and letterer with two bachelor’s degrees that have nothing to do with art. Olga was born in Moscow, Russia, but moved to Latvia to find some peace and quiet. She now lives in an eco-village in the forest with her husband. Surrounded by nature on a daily basis, she finds inspiration in organic shapes and the perfect imperfections of the world. Her style is a mix of playful forms and cute characters drawn by hand and then digitized. When she is not working on illustrations, she can be found sleeping or being a doorwoman for her cats.
