“It's rare to find a children's book designer who knows how to balance design with the needs of the reader. Tara uses design to enhance and engage readers. Every element she puts in a book is thought out. Her designs are beautiful. Tara can do it all—books and covers, marketing materials, and curriculum programs. I started working with Tara 15+ years ago when we worked for the same publisher. For the last five years, I've contracted with Tara for all my design needs. It amazes me how Tara takes my scattered thoughts and translates them into a product that I could never envision myself. Tara is quick, responsive to feedback, and very easy to work with.”
