Ava the strong

An atmospheric picture book about accepting help and learning to trust.

Ava lives alone in a faraway forest. Her only companions are her bow and arrow, but that’s alright. After all, Ava means ‘the Strong’, so she doesn’t need any help and manages quite well on her own – and others are not to be trusted. However, that changes when Ava one day suffers from a terrible toothache she can’t get rid of herself. Maybe it’s not so bad to accept help after all …

Illustrator

Anja Grote studied communication design and illustration. After working as a graphic designer for a while, she chose to pursue being an illustrator in 2016. Since then, her companions have included cheeky astronauts, small Littels, and clever animals. She loves her job especially because it makes children’s eyes shine, because of the values it forms, and because the books she helps create convey a sense of connectedness with all people, animals, and the rest of the world.
