I recently illustrated a children's book for Hachette. This is an exciting new series called Taranauts and it's been written by Roopa Pai . For more on the series you can go to www.taranauts.com.

Here is the cover as well as some of the other illustrations for the book. The cover's been done using water colours and the publishers did a neat job by using lovely green foil while printing it!
