Malane Newman Completes Illustration on ``The Perfect Christmas Tree`` Children's Book
July 2020 — Malane Newman just completed illustrating “The Perfect Christmas Tree” children’s book written by Michael Pellico. The book will be published around December 1, 2020 and is available for pre-order on the Moonbow Publishing’s Online Store.
This children’s book is an adorable and unusual Christmas story about a grove of pine trees in a beautiful forest. Their father worries about them growing up, being cut down, and decorated as Christmas Trees for the human’s holiday. He offers his children advice on how to avoid this fateful future. One little pine tree is stubborn and ignores his father’s advice and grows up to become the perfect Christmas tree…
I want to encourage you to buy this wonderful children’s book. Children will fall in love with this story, the illustrations, the lead character and his personality, and the lessons to be learned! I created some very short motion graphic 2d animations using artwork from the children’s book. These video animations were created specifically for social media platforms to announce the book’s availability.
