I'm digging it. It's from Melbourne author/illustrator/lawyer Nicki Greenberg, who sold her first series, The Digits, when she was fifteen (& sold more than 380,000 copies).
Speaking of illustrators...
Jason Chan the guy who illustrated the UK/Australian cover of The Hunger Games also illustrated:
 |
| Katniss for The Hunger Games |
 |
| Katniss and Peeta |
 |
| Eyes Like Stars for Lisa Mantchev |
 |
| Perchance to Dream - for Lisa Mantchev |
 |
| For Book of the Order by Phillipa Ballantyne Makes me think of Nya from Janice Hardy's The Shifter |
 |
| The Girl Who Could Fly for Victoria Forester |
 |
| And... Star Wars Rebellion Era Campaign Guide Love it! |
Personally, I love illustrated book covers, especially ones by Jason Chan who is just whoah-talented.

ReplyDeleteI read the digits! That was the one with the fingerprints wasn't it? I loved that book, I remember thinking at the time how cool it was that she was so young when she wrote it
ReplyDeleteThey're all beautiful, but i really love the Eyes Like Stars cover. You do such interesting posts about covers and art - I want to see more of yours!!

ReplyDeleteI honestly cannot describe how much I love the Girl Who Could Fly illustration. Thanks for sharing! (:
ReplyDeleteI keep admiring the covers for Perchance to Dream and The Girl Who Could Fly when I'm in the bookstore. I can't believe I didn't clue in that it was the same artist.
