About the Author

Ellen DeLange has been fascinated by picture books ever since she was a child growing up in the Netherlands. In the attic of her home she assembled a small library and shared her collection with friends and family. As an adult she started traveling and expanded her library with picture books from all over the world. Ellen also enjoyed inventing her own stories and was encouraged by her daughter to write her first picture book, A Story with a Tale. Ellen has a doctorate in medical sciences, and currently lives in Canada where she loves to walk in the woods with her Jack Russell terriers, drink lots of tea after a busy day, and sail on the ocean to clear her mind.
Martina Heiduczek grew up in a small village on the Baltic Sea in Germany. Here she used to gallop through the forests on her Shetland pony, but she also loved to read and draw. After her study design and illustration in Hamburg, Martina moved to Australia. She creates funny illustrations in a mixture of digital and traditional media, like gouache, colored pencil and layers of scanned pictures. Her work is inspired by nature, people, her two home countries and the emotionally moving and silly things she sees … Magic is everywhere!

Reviews

“An incredibly charming story about discovery, research, and the power of curiosity in young people. Highly recommended.” - Rogene Carter (Educator)


“Cute and fun story about acceptance and tolerance. There is humor but also a good message and all of it is well illustrated. Good job!” - Etienne Breton


“Well, that was too cute! The Boy and the Egg is a short, adorable read with precious whimsical illustrations! I will be honest and say that I chose this book based on the illustration style alone. But the story ended up being just as whimsical and sweet. With bright colors, an engaging storyline, and child-like curiosity, this story will engage even the squirmiest of little ones! I highly recommend this, and will likely grab a hardcopy as soon as it's available!” - Sarah Grace Grzybowski


“As the title suggests, the boy and the Egg' is a simple but a cute tale about an inquisitive little boy who comes across an egg. The unattended egg sparks the boy's curiosity and he finds himself questioning about the existence of it. After carefully inspecting it, the boy decides to keep it with himself citing safety issues. His thoughts resonate about the possibilities of a living creature hatching from it. Since he has no idea about the origin of the egg, his imaginations run wild as he keeps guessing and fantasizing about it. The illustrations were vibrant and the boy's facial expressions were adorable. I'm very sure that the kids would find this book to be very appealing.” - Siddharth D
