Toronto-based artist and illustrator Julie Kraulis is passionate about ideas- the unexpected, profound, whimsical, smart. Since completing her Bachelor of Design in Illustration at the Ontario College of Art & Design, Julie has created images that form a diverse body of work ranging from fine art, to illustration, to design. Her creative journey is one of hope and disbelief, soaring and stumbling. All that she encounters in this wide world becomes her inspiration and she delights in sharing these treasures with others. She is a "stop and smell the roses" kind of gal who loves to create. Visit her online at juliekraulis.com. The author lives in Toronto, Canada.

"[Whimsy's] ... solutions are ingenious, and the ending surprises
with a mature little twist that is reassuring as well as realistic.
Every page is sweetly rendered by author and illustrator Julie
Kraulis's oil and graphite artwork, which evokes a softer, gentler
version of Tim Burton's style.”
