SPRING - FALL 2015

We make childrens dreams come true

EVERY CHILD IS GIFTED WITH

MANY UNIQUE TALENTS.
Later on in life, these talents will
allow children to dream and
eventually to add purpose to their
own life and the lives of others.
Here at Clavis Publishing, we
create books that help children
make those dreams come true.
Books that stimulate their
imagination. Books that
strengthen their sensitivity,
judgment, and wisdom. Books that
help children understand the way
of the world.
We firmly believe that in creating
books that teach children about
human relations and the world
all around them, we are helping
to create a better future. After all,
the world of tomorrow will
resemble the dreams of todays
children.

Hello,
my name is Liesbet Slegers.

This Is Me

- By Liesbet Slegers

I have two eyes, a nose and a mouth. I

have two arms, two legs and a tummy.
Every day I get dressed and put on my
clothes. And I play with my friends.

As a graphic designer, I have always loved a

simple line. Consequently, as an illustrator I
have developed a similar style. Bright colors
and strong imagery are my trademark its a
combination that works particularly well for
young children.
With acrylic on paper, I create cheerful
drawings with bright colors that never fail to
catch childrens attention. This is the main
reason why I enjoy drawing for the youngest
ones its always an exciting challenge to
captivate them.

Me and My House

There are a lot of things in my house.
There are plants, lamps, tables, and

Pinocchios Dream
- By An Leysen

The wonderful story about Gepetto

and Pinocchio is brought to life by
An Leysens beautiful images.
She tells this classic in her own way,
with fun details and a surprising end.

Once upon a time there was a poor and lonely carpenter. His name was Gepetto.
He lived all by himself in a small room with one tiny window to let in the light.
The carpenter decided to make a puppet to keep him company. He named the
puppet Pinocchio, and put so much love into making him, that he became more
than just a regular wooden puppet. Pinocchio looked just like a real boy and could
dance and jump without anyone pulling any strings. And thats just what he wanted
to be. But before he could become a real boy, Pinocchio had to learn many lessons.

Hello, Im Mack!
I made a long journey before I started
creating childrens books. First I was a
writer but after that, I went to the academy
of arts to become a designer. During my
education I also learned how to draw. Thats
how it all started.
As the regular illustrator at The Royal Zoo of
Rotterdam, I know a lot about wild animals.
Thats the reason why they star in almost
all of my books. I like to put the animals in
funny and recognizable situations.

I combine photographs and illustrations.

The pictures show children what animals
really look like, the drawings guarantee that
the smallest ones have something to laugh
about. Maybe thats why my books became
so popular so fast.
