The First Christmas

Jess Racklyeft is a children's book lover, draw-er and reader based in Melbourne, who also creates work for card companies, picture books, original paintings, prints and all types of different client projects.

Two of the books Jess has illustrated, Merry Everything and Smile Cry, have gone on to become CBCA notables.
