“I can put my emotions into my art. I want to create characters so kids can see themselves and know that they are beautiful.”
Holly Hatam is an acclaimed picture book maker, designer, and textile engineer. Holly is the New York Times’s bestselling illustrator of “Dear Girl” and “Dear Boy” - as well as books like “Hair Stories'', “Jack (Not Jackie)”, “Maxine the Maker”, and the recently released PRINCESS CHARMING. Holly’s books have been translated into over 10 languages and sold over 1 million copies worldwide. But most importantly, Raman’s little kids LOVE her work. Diversity in children’s books is super important to Holly. Holly is Iranian, her husband is Chinese, and with their son being biracial it’s even more important for Holly to shine the spotlight on anyone that feels invisible or unheard.
