Here are a couple of fans and they want to give a shoutout to Scott Stewart.
"We love your illustrations!"



A teacher and her sister with THE POWER OF THE PENNY.



"Whenever I find a penny, I always pray for someone that has a drinking or drug problem, that they be sober. And if I find them in my neighborhood that is an Asian community, I don't pick them up because they believe pennies keep evil spirits away. So I follow their tradition in my neighborhood."
