Award-winning illustrator thought she ‘wasn’t good’

“When I graduated, I felt my work wasn’t very good,” said Ms Rolfe, who still works one day per week at a children’s book shop in her home town.

“So that external validation, from people who know what they’re talking about, and who have never met me, who have nothing to base it on other than simply my work on a piece of paper, has brought me so much confidence.”

Ms Rolfe said she hoped her work would prompt children with dyslexia, or any other neurodivergence, to speak to others about their condition.
