A few weeks ago, I had a lovely chat with Tessa Yates. She is a local author and illustrator based in Bath. She is the founder of the Happy Book Company and has published some beautiful books.
In this video, we talk about her books, Squirrel and The Three Bears and The Girl who Walked to Moon. But we also discuss her creative process, who inspires her and her motivation behind starting the Happy Book Company.
Below, I have included the covers of her books, which are mentioned in the Q&A.
Also, I included The Girl who Walked to the Moon on my blog a few months ago. It is a wonderful book for opening up conversations about resilience with children. But equally touches upon other themes such as bereavement and loss.
Where can I buy Tessa Yates’ books?
Make sure to visit the shop section of the Happy Book Company website. However, you can also visit her store front on Not on the High Street.
Also, if you are interested in getting involved with Hookable Books or finding out more about me, please get in touch. Even if it is something you would like to see, or a different way that you would like to get involved. I am always open minded and would love to hear from you.
Would you like to take part in an author or illustrator Q&A. If so, check out the Author Q&A section or the Illustrator Q&A sections respectively.
