I worked on a series of board books about child development in the first four years of life that were recently published and uploaded into my portfolio.

"Splish Splash"  is an interactive board book, published by Little Simon. It is a “touch and hear” book, which incorporates a variety of fun materials that mimic the sounds of the animals in the book. In this case, animals which you might find along a river’s bank or by a lake or pond. My art director did a very creative job sourcing the appropriate materials to make the various sounds. I especially love the munching beaver (the reader rubs his/her finger on a swatch of Velcro embedded in a log).
