Abby Haddad – Designer

Experienced children's book designer specialising in innovative novelty books

Overview

Hello there! I'm Abby, a seasoned children's book designer with a knack for bringing joy and wonder to the littlest readers. With four years at Campbell Books, I am experienced in the world of novelty books for young children, specialising in various formats like flaps, board books, and pop-ups.


Over the course of my career, I've worked to tight deadlines, consistently delivering top-notch designs while injecting creative ideas into every project. I also bring a wealth of experience in typography and layout design to the table. This ensures that not only does your book look visually appealing, but it also maintains readability and coherence, crucial elements for children's literature. I can seamlessly blend creativity with functionality, resulting in designs that not only catch the eye but also stand the test of practical use by little hands.


If you take a peek at my portfolio, you'll find a colourful tapestry of projects, from board books to interactive pop-ups. I offer a unique blend of creativity, precision, and experience, ensuring that your children's book not only looks visually stunning but also engages and delights young readers. I thrive on collaboration and welcome the opportunity to work with you on your next project. Looking forward to the adventure ahead!
