GRUMPLE THE GREAT is a heart-warming picture book set in the magical landscape of Lake Tahoe, California. This 20-page story, perfect for children aged 4 and up, follows Grumple —a grumpy yet loveable character— on a journey of kindness, self-discovery, and the power of friendship. Along with the illustrations, I also handled the editorial design and page layout, creating a cohesive visual flow throughout the book.

As the illustrator, my goal was to bring Grumple’s world to life with expressive characters, soft palettes, and dynamic compositions, balancing humour and tenderness to make the story engaging for both children and parents.
