Duluth, GA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/27/2015 -- Helen H. Wu is pleased to announce the launch of her Kickstarter Crowdfunding campaign to raise funds for the publication of her original children's picture book collection, Marcus The Monkey, which includes 4 illustrated stories. The campaign was launched on Monday the 27th July and is already generating great interest in the children's publishing field.
The picture book is called Marcus The Monkey and contains 4 illustrated stories all following the adventures of Marcus the mischievous, lovable monkey. With sweet stories and humorous storylines the book is sure to be a keepsake for children and art lovers everywhere.
As an illustrator Helen's primary goal is to create a visually stunning experience that explores and teaches children life values and educational lessons.
When asked about her motivation to write and create this picture book for children Helen said, "For children, nothing beats the compelling and engaging experience of being able to read the physical copy in front of them—turning pages and digging into the dreamy, imagination inspiring world.
Full color illustrations and intricate details means that every page is a treat for the eyes and is also perfect for early readers."
The characters Marcus and his friends have been designed, that they are fun and relatable and express their own values such as mealtimes, bedtime and friendships.
Helen has launched her Crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and is seeking $5,000 to produce the coffee table book of 4 illustrated stories.
Helen is an acclaimed author and has written and illustrated a dozen original books that are available to purchase through the usual channels, Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Helen-H.-Wu/e/B00F6FSVN2/) and Helen's website (http://www.helenhwu.com/#!books/c11zb)
In the meantime all of you illustrators, writers and self publishers may also be interested in Helen's campaign as she provides much sought after insights and tips on how to turn your own story's into picture books.
The campaign has amazing perks available to supporters including art pieces, which are ideal for children's illustration collectors who will simply love Helen's original artwork. There are also digital downloadable coloring books for the little ones, and Helen has also thought of the budding artists out there and has provided coloring books printed on high quality paper with removable pages for those with a desire to hang their completed artwork.
