Another brilliantly drawn page from the children's book, "How Are Ya, Arya?" Book writer, Sherry Anne, gives the backstory on the inspiration for this book below.
"My niece, Arya, loves animals. When she was about three years old, I began reading her 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit' which she quickly loved. Between her love for the Beatrix Potter book and her love for animals, I knew the direction I wanted her children's book to take. Utilizing watercolor, illustrator Chris Strange, masterfully merged the two ideas in this wide-eye tale of Arya meeting various animals along her stroll, each of them greeting her with: 'How Are Ya, Arya?'"
We think our readers will love the answer each animal gives along with their colorful depiction. Pick up your bright and colorful copy this lenten season for the special child in your life. πποΈπͺΊ
