About the author

Hey everyone!

I am a freelance artist, but I also like to dabble in being a self-published author/illustrator of children's books.

Reading has been one of my favorite pass times ever since I was a kid! I love manga, graphic novels, well-written fanfiction and pretty much any book that delves into sci-fi, supernatural, or fantasy genres.

The nostalgia I feel for the children's books of my youth are what inspire me to create children's books myself. I wish to make books that not only teach important lessons to kids, but also carry on as fond memories in their adulthood like mine did for me.

I plan to illustrate - and possibly write - more children's books in the future. So feel free to check out my artwork and keep track of my progress by following me on Instagram (@multiverse_kid27).

This was such a heart warming story. Following the characters and how they process the lost of a friend will pull on you heartstrings. The illustrations are amazing!! They truly help to tell the story. I have shared this book with adults who have recently lost parents. They found it very comforting. A great book to give anyone who is dealing with grief.
