When Adil Speaks Words Dance

Book design and Art Direction for When Adil Speaks, Words Dance

Written and illustrated by Lavanya Karthik.

Everyone wants to be friends with Adil. But how do you start a conversation with someone when their words dance to music you cannot hear? When Adil Speaks, Words Dance is a heart-warming tale of empathy, inclusivity and the surprising superpowers of friendship.

This was one of the most rewarding projects that I worked on. Working with Lavanya on this adorable book taught me a lot as a designer and as a person. What a brilliant book to introduce young minds to a wider vision of life, friendship and conversations.
