To my readers,
I have worked as a graphic designer and illustrator since 2002. I love to create! That is why my profession is my passion. After I welcomed a daughter in 2007 and discovered the world through a child’s eyes once again, I decided to devote my professional career to children’s art. I became determined to create bright and educational books for children.
While living in Vancouver, I fell in love with the city and that is how my idea of plasticized Curly Orli came to life.
I arrived in Canada from Israel, a country where everybody is dreaming about peace. I strongly believe that the future of our country depends on us. Let’s help our children to direct their energy into a fruitful direction.
Love the city you live in! Go for a walk in any weather! Learn to see the miracles around yourself! Share your impressions with each other! Create and fantasize! Those are the ideas I want to deliver to my little readers.
Colourful, educational books such as «Curly Orli Goes To Vancouver» will help children open their eyes to the beauty all around them.
