Odell (left) and Linda Mitchell (right) are the husband-and-wife team who published “How Are You Today? A Celebration of Children’s Emotions.”
Ten years ago, Linda Mitchell sought to put together a book using images her husband, Odell, had captured of their children throughout the years. Mitchell wanted to use the candid photos to teach children about the range of emotions they could experience.
The duo used Adobe InDesign to lay out several iterations of the book, but Mitchell didn’t quite follow through with fully publishing it. That’s despite printing out an emailed quote from a professional designer. She kept it on her wall for years, thinking about whether to spend the money.
