After reading the book Whoever You Are by Mem Fox, Ms. Oates‘ students studied the illustrations of artist Leslie Staub. Here are examples of the artwork produced by sixth graders in the style of Leslie Staub. Note: The original artwork is framed on all four sides but was “cropped” during the process of scanning.

These pictures are wonderful. I would have been super proud to make them myself. Thank you for looking so carefully at the book.
If you have any questions about illustrating books or about WHOEVER YOU ARE please email me. I will be happy to answer.
Wishing you all every happiness in the whole wide world.

Thank you for taking your time to comment on our art we really appreciate it. The message your pictures sent were really clear and we loved reading the book and looking at these beautiful illustrations. But I have only one question, what inspired you to make these illustrations?
Thank you,

Hello!
Thank you for your comment and offer to correspond – it’s always exciting to hear from professional artists.
I will pass your message on to the teacher – Ms. Oates – who is in charge of this project.

Your illustrations are amazing! I’m not a good illustrator, so I’m surprised mine even looks remotely like the ones in “Whoever You Are”.
