Elisa Kleven writes and illustrates picture books because she’s never outgrown her childhood passion for art and story-making. Having spent much of her childhood creating magical, miniature worlds, Elisa now creates similar worlds inside of her picture books. Elisa is the author and/or illustrator of over thirty books. Her books have received many honors, including a New York Times Best Illustrated Book Award for SUN BREAD, ALA Notable and School Library Journal Best Books of the year citations, and inclusion in Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library and the Reading Rainbow series. Elisa's stories have also been performed as plays and ballets by professional theater and dance companies. In 2018 Elisa delivered a TEDx Talk on the power of retaining a childlike imagination throughout life, and she loves to share her thoughts about this with both children and adults.
