]]> I’m delighted to share with you this new series of books that are so dear to me. These are the first two in an inventive series, You Are My Baby, published by Chronicle Books.

“You are my baby” is something I have told my daughter again and again since her birth, and was the inspiration for these fun books.

Each board book features animals with their babies in an additional “mini book” nestled inside. “Turn the pages to match the baby animals to their parents and learn some early concepts along the way.”

You are my Baby: Safari features classic Petit Collage animals: lion, monkey, elephant, giraffe, and crocodile, while You Are My Baby: Farm has a few new designs; a Petit Collage take on a favorite toddler theme. Our friends at Chronicle Books did a FANTASTIC job bringing these books to life. We couldn’t be happier to have these Petit Collage books released!

]]> I’m so very happy my first US book written and illustrated by me, is now available!
I was inspired by toddlers, and their play, and how they always seem to have the last word, as my 3 year old daughter can confirm!

Published by Dial Books For Young Readers, an imprint of Penguin Group Inc.

Early Praise for Monkey See, Look at Me!:

“Siminovich’s story is the soul of simplicity, with naïf digital collages set against sunny, softly textured backgrounds … Similarly, her message is proffered lightly: one-upmanship can be good-natured fun, so long as everybody gets a chance to be the one who’s up.” —Publishers Weekly

“Never mean-spirited, the animals’ exchanges … invite young children to anticipate the text’s pattern while enjoying the friendly illustrations. A sweet new title about friends and imaginative play.”—Kirkus Reviews
