Juvenile Illustrations

Dana Simson’s juvenile illustrations have been published in scrapbooking supplies, fabric, board books, popup books and a baby’s first five years journal. Her pop-up book Dreamland, We bloom, and Baby’s first Five Years were top sellers in their launch years. While Dana does enjoy illustrating children and people, she frequently uses animals as characters as they are not race or gender specific. Who can’t relate with a rotund rabbit running in a raincoat?
