A children's book, about petroleum engineering. Because, there should be more children's books about petroleum engineering. Ones where the oil people are not the villains.
Plus it's just an interesting science that is not well known to the general public (maybe because there are not enough children's books about it).
The text is more or less finished. I wanted it to be three things
1) an accurate depiction of petroleum engineering,
2) to rhyme, and
3) to be simple enough for kids to understand.
It's definitely the first two, not sure about the third. The wording got a little more complex than I had planned, but I had so much fun with the rhyming.
Here are some illustrations that I may use.
I was on the slope Tuesday so I took some pictures at the CPF2 facility that I could use.
This is the working title. Van posed for this picture with me so I could draw it. :)
