I Want To Be A Famous Camera

A children's book by Alesya Harkusha

How do you show kids the beauty of following their dreams?

 

The book tells the fantastical and inspiring story of Ale, a baby camera who dreams of becoming famous and winning awards for her photographs.

 

Little Ale’s adventures will entertain your child with her three best friends by her side: Ymka - a hybrid wolf dog, Miami - a pet chicken, and April - a cat.

 

Beautifully illustrated, this story would make a great gift to encourage any child to be the best version of themselves through creative thinking and confidence in one’s talents. 

 

Written for ages 5 through 9, this book would make a great addition to any homeschool and classroom library. The story told in a time when read and re-read will help your child build their vocabulary and understand the rhythm within words.

Behind the scenes of creating this magical book

The story is based on the author’s real-life pets, Ymka, Miami, and April. Every page is a real-life art project that was incorporated into the story, such as purchasing animal masks and asking strangers to wear them for a photo shoot. The author also made a recycled collage featuring an Orca whale at the beach.
