title: Shayan's Tale
author:  Sophie Kittredge 
description: Sophie was inspired to write and illustrate Shayan's Tale by her beloved dog Joe, an abused dog she rescued from a New York-area shelter after the 9/11 terror attacks. Sophie also drew on her own globe-trotting childhood traveling the world with her family and dogs as a US Foreign Service dependent. After growing up in half a dozen countries in Europe, Asia and the Middle East, Sophie graduated from art school in northwest London with a degree in illustration. After working as a children's book illustrator in England, she moved to New York city, where she split her time between illustration and painting for animation studios. Sophie now lives in the South Carolina Lowcountry with her husband, two dogs and a cat.
