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!
“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
