For my final feature of 2021, I want to look back at my top picks of the year. There have been so many incredible childrenโs books published in 2021.
Little Glow by Katie Sahota & Harry Woodgate ~ #Guest Post ~ @harryewoodgate @KatieKateWrites @OwletPress
In a fascinating illustrator Guest Post, Harry reveals how they created the opening spread. โLittle Glowโ is a story all about a diverse, multicultural community, and the different festivals of light it celebrates throughout the year. Itโs also about the importance of introverts, told through the eyes of a shy candle flame who watches all the celebrations and eventually discovers its own important purpose. Itโs very lyrical, very cosy, and Iโm very excited to share with you a little bit of the process of how the book came together.
