Books & Projects
Elizabeth Sparg is open to working with independent/self-publishing authors to bring their stories to life. She offers children's book illustration, book layout design, cover design and cover illustration services. She will advise and assist with preparing your book for publication from manuscript to page breaks and roughs to final product - for both print-on-demand platforms (like Amazon KDP and Ingram Spark) as well as traditional printers.
Elizabeth Sparg also welcomes book illustration commissions from traditional publishers, and is currently working on dummy books for her own author-illustrator projects. 
Traditional publishers in the US can contact her agent Kyle at Wendy Lynn & Co: kyle@wendylynn.com
