Not only it makes me feel worm and fuzzy, it also help a ton of artists to become better with their craft, in a respectful, caring environment. And it's all your fault!
We were actually shopping this manuscript 5 years ago, with no luck. And when I was already a little bit established, got better with illustrations and my mom revised the MS like a bazillion times - I asked my current editor to look at it and they said it was perfect, because they could easily see this book to be translated and sold for foreign rights so they took it!
you're an inspiration for us all

Hi everyone!
I really hope this is OK, but - I am so thrilled! My newest book, that was written by my mom
and traditionally published first in our home country, was released in english just yesterday!

So if anyone would be interested to check it, buy it, tell a friend about it, that would mean the world to us.
I would never be able to make such a book without SVS. So a huge thanks to you all and to our great teachers.
That's about all... Bye and enjoy the fall while it's sunny and colourful!
