I'm really happy to show these 2 pictures books that I've illustrated.
They are about rescue animals that had to move out from their homes and fortunately find a new family at the Carter Station.

Mari Finds a Home
'Mari the Monkey knows everything there is to know about the Carter Station Wildlife Center, and she always makes everyone feel welcome. But, it wasn’t always that way. Once a tiny orphan in Costa Rica, she had to learn to stand up for herself and discover that family can be found in all sorts of unexpected places."

Character Design
This was definitely my favorite part! Discovering who this character was and how to show her lovely personality.

You can bring Mari the Monkey to life with a model set that comes with the book ♡


Percy Faces his Fears
"Percy the Penguin has loved living in the Carter Station Wildlife Refuge since he had to seek refuge there after an oil spill, but there’s one thing he hates—swimming! While all the other animals enjoy spending summer days in the ocean, Percy is afraid of the water. But with some determination and the help of his friends, Percy learns how to face his fears, confront his past, and join in on the fun."
