Kristi's debut picture book, Alpacas Make Terrible Librarians, is set to release in the fall of 2024. 

Kristi takes readers on a humorous exploration of how the library works when an alpaca is in charge as it temporarily "fills in" for a favorite librarian. Illustrators Chantelle and Burgen Thorne round out the team to layer this story with extra doses of fun.
