Be Kind
I was commissioned to illustrate the rhyming picture book Be Kind by Monique Le Roux. Aimed at kids aged 0 to 7, it encourages kindness and empathy.
The brief was to visualise the different scenarios described in the rhyme and to design a diverse cast of characters within a Kiwi-inspired setting. The result was a cohesive visual narrative, a fully illustrated book featuring a range of vibrant characters in an immersive environment.
“He magically saw right into my head and presented not only what I was after but added his own little quirks and charm to each illustration. I am happy to say, we worked very well together.”

“The vibrant illustrations, by Kwok Yi Lee, are loaded with interesting things to spot.”
