Is Yuyi Morales The World’s Most Inspiring Illustrator?

December 11, 2017 by Colby Sharp   1 comments

COLBY: I love working on this audio show. Sharing stories like the one we get to share today makes my heart happy. Yuyi’s journey to becoming a book creator is one of the most inspirational stories that we have ever shared here on The Yarn. I hope the episode brings you as much joy and inspiration as it brought me.
