I write, illustrate and publish books in which young children can see themselves and their friends represented in the best possible ways.
It shouldn’t be hard to find books that combine diverse representation with a sense of wonder.

Ken Wilson-Max
As a father and publisher, I know how important it is for every child to see a hero in a book who looks like them.
I travelled to the UK to study graphic design. I ended up working in publishing, and after a decade of designing books for children and young adults, I became a children’s author and illustrator. It was a slow and steady change, resulting in 10 books and bunch of awards for doing something I absolutely love.
Buy books
Here are two online shops I recommend. If you want to buy in person, visit your local independent bookstore, and order a book in if they don’t have it. It takes a few days to arrive which builds a sense of excitement for young readers.
Of course, you always visit the local library!
