Books that Make Me Curiouser and Curiouser: A Reading Journal for Kids of All Ages - Softcover

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Old folktales – steeped in magic, mystery and fantasy – are an important source of inspiration for Emma Adams of the illustration studio Fox & Fables. The images in her portfolio offer a window into a world where nature takes on human qualities. Foxes and frogs, hares and squirrels, moles and mice all nestle side-by-side in a cosy, comforting atmosphere, with perhaps just a hint of mischief and magic.​ In palettes that are earthy and autumnal, Emma conjures a soft feeling of nostalgia, far away from the whiz of technology and the grind of city living. Her creativity is built on a lifetime of drawing and after graduating North Dakota State University she led a successful career in fashion design and later became a specialist in nursery décor. Now a fulltime illustrator, her clients love Emma’s collaborative nature, dependability and idea-led approach. Based in Minnesota, Emma enjoys the outdoors and the satisfaction of tending a garden full of fruit, vegetables and flowers. Her inspirations include classics such as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lord of the Rings, and A Series of Unfortunate Events.
