A diverse group of sleeping children, covered with a colorful blanket with little icons on it, like a bird, a sun, and different patterns. Behind them you can see a huge window with an impressive city skyline by night.

The picture shows a diverse range of children inside a bold and interactive museum. There are colorful, creative installations to touch and play with.

The book cover is showing a diverse cast of 9 little people, each one unique, celebrating their lifelong friendship. They are surrounded by a colorful and abstract landscape of blooms, trees and a city skyline.

Exciting news: My newest picture book "9 Little People" was selected by the jury for the Illustrators 67 exhibit by the Society of Illustrators!

It's such an honor to have a couple of illustrations exhibited in New York in Spring 2025.
Thanks so much to the jury!
