These are a series of illustrations by me for an unpublished children's story titled, Carol's Cat is Stuck on a Tree! The story moves with simple and repetitive sentences meant to aid children in language learning and early reading. The illustrations reflect the simplicity and repetitive structure of the text while also bringing alive the drama and emotions of the story to engage the child and make reading fun.
