FROM SKETCH TO STORY
Every character begins with a single line.
Before Champ, Lily and Lee found their way into the pages of A Spring Surprise, they began as simple pencil sketches.
From their playful expressions to the smallest details, each character gradually took shape, developing into the colourful woodland friends who would bring the story to life. The transition from pencil to finished illustration captures the creative journey behind the book, where an idea becomes a character and a character becomes part of a story
