'young voices of arabia 2022' publication . 2023

 

here's a look at a recent project i worked on with voices of future generations, a great initiative inviting young authors and writers between the ages 8 – 12 to submit their stories into a competition. winning stories are then published in their annual book 'young voices of arabia', which also includes illustrations for each story by invited artists and illustrators. 
for it's third edition, i was invited to illustrate the short story 'yazan and the greedy man' by 9 year old author mohamed hamad mohamed alzeyoudi. it's the cutest little story, and i hope the author is happy with how the illustrations turned out.
the third edition of 'young voices of arabia' was launched at this year's emirates airline festival of literature, published in english and arabic. thank you to the voices of future generations team for inviting me to be a part of this sweet and special project.
