Snow Warrior
The first Children’s book written and illustrated by me.
Snow Warrior weaves together a poetic fairy tale set in Snow World, which symbolically represents the Arctic. The story, illustrated in an exquisite, beautiful style, targets 10-12-year-old children. Elena, a brave young girl who lives on the southern side of Snow World, perseveres in trying to save her animal friends on the northern side from the harshest conditions of climate change induced by human behaviors while the people there ignore the situation. To this end, Elena leaves her safe home and bravely strides towards an anguished moan of an animal in distress. After she witnesses Oscar, a lonely polar bear, suffering in a polluted environment, she attempts to help him. After undergoing further accidents, she, along with Oscar and his animal friends, set out to resolve the situation, collecting the clean breezes, water, leaves, and snowflakes from the southern side to magically purify the northern side.
This unique visual journey, in which danger, surprise, love, and courage abound, shows the strength it takes to save Snow World. Regardless of whatever obstacle Elena faces, she never gives up. The story aims to convey a message that all actions count when we are confronted with global warming. If each of us takes measures within our power, the cumulative impact will improve the environment.
Elena chased after an animal's sobbing. She climbed over mountains, ran through a forest and finally found the him, a little polar bear moaning for help. When she looked at this strange, polluted place in the other side of Snow World (her country), she was shocked to see and couldn't stop asking who did that to them.
She released the spring breeze first to the dirty, muggy sky in a magical way. It worked!
Elena came back home and started to collect the clean elements, including spring breeze, summer water, autumn leaves and winter snowflakes into her magical backpack. She believed they could help to change the polar bear's homeland.
The polar bear called out all his friends to help Elena clean the land together. Thanks to teamwork, the place quickly turned better.
However, an unexpected catastrophe not only destroyed the place but also separated them. Was it too late to save the land? What would Elena do?
