Laila and the Magic Hair
Laila and the magic hair was a story written by Grace and I during lockdown. She loves writing a story and we sat together and wrote one about her younger sister, Laila. Laila LOVES to twiddle her hair, so we thought how good it would be if it was magical, and the rest just went from there.
The only trouble we had was that I was not talented enough to draw the illustrations myself. Fortunately, after a conversation with a ridiculously talented colleague, (who it turns out has always dreamt of being an illustrator) we were able to turn it into a book. Nicola Ellwood is an amazing artist and we were very lucky to have her work on this with us. |
