Two real-life best friends teamed up to co-illustrate “I Don’t Care,” a children’s book about friendships.

"This is a story about two people who are on the surface maybe seemingly very different, but at their cores are very, very similar," says Idle,"and I thought, 'Oh my gosh, that's just like me and Juana!'"Idle and Martinez-Neal met 16 years ago. They were both artists and first-time moms, but Martinez-Neal's child was a year older than Idle's.
"It definitely influenced the way in which we wanted to make art," says Idle."Because we knew that we had to use mediums and color palettes that we could keep consistent despite distance and despite having to ship the art back and forth." Since they also use color in different ways, Idle and Martinez-Neal decided that they would only use two. They chose their favorites — yellow for Martinez-Neal and teal for Idle.
"The color also grows throughout the book," says Juana Martinez-Neal. At the beginning, when the two friends are uncertain about each other, the color shapes are far apart on the page.

Data from the Health Resources and Services Administration suggests there's already a shortage of health care workers in the U.S., and a report by the Association of American Medical Colleges said that the deficit will get much worse — with a projected shortage of up to 124,000 physicians by 2034, including shortfalls in both primary care and specialty care.
