As a young girl, Lori Joy Smith’s weekly trips to the library with her father sparked her love for reading and children’s books. As a teenager, she lived in Italy and visited some of the most beautiful museums in Europe, which left her wanting nothing more than to make art herself. Now Lori gets to put these two loves together every day, working as an artist and illustrator. Lori lives on PEI with her husband, two girls, three cats, two bunnies, one dog, and two sheep. She loves making art, walking in the forest, watching the stars, drinking coffee, growing flowers, and – most of all – reading to her own girls every night before they go to sleep.
