With their brightly painted edges, the PlayShapes™ series of sturdy shaped board books are satisfying and fun to hold. Simple language—with just the right amount of real information—and boisterous illustrations introduce little ones to the irresistible emperor penguin!
Nadia was always destined for a career in illustration—as a child, she would doodle on her exercise books, while as a student she would doodle on her law degree notes. Then, when working as a journalist in London for pop music bible Smash Hits, she would doodle all the time on anything. The good people at Smash Hits didn’t fire her for doodling furry animals - instead they let her leave early to go to evening classes in illustration.
This was followed by a MA at the prestigious Anglia Ruskin University. Drawing and writing for a living is very much Nadia’s dream come true and we expect great things from this promising new author and illustrator.
