Overview
I am a highly skilled children's book designer with nearly 8 years of experience working for one of the best known children's publishers Ladybird books. I have experience in a wide range of book formats specialising in novelty (pop-up’s, touch and feel, flaps, mechanisms), sticker books, activity books and picture books. I will work from brief to final artwork files ready for print. My skills cover every aspect of design problem solving from branding to typography. Whether it's a children's book, you need designing, or a book which is calling out to be brought to life with novelty, I am happy to help!
