Joy's Sneakers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781981413584)

Leila Nabih (1975- ) was born in Paris, France. Of both French and Egyptian Origins, she grew up as the daughter of an expat and travelled around the world. She finally settled in the UK in 2009. She had a non linear career but always kept on illustrating and writing her own stories during her spare time. Her first book "Litt'l Red", which she wrote and illustrated, is an adaptation to Charles Perrault dark tale of Little Red Riding Hood. Her second book, Joy's Sneakers is based on her little sister and her love for shoes and cats. Funny and quirky, she has developed a unique illustration style which she lends to other authors when they commission her to illustrate their stories for them.
