About

As a children’s book writer and illustrator, Mary has illustrated over 20 books for young readers, from picture books to middle grade novels. Her most recent title, THE FLOCK WE FOUND, was named a Best Books of 2025 by Child Mind Institute and her 2018 title, A TUBA CHRISTMAS, received a Kirkus Star. Prior to beginning her publishing career, Mary worked on animation projects for Warner Brothers and Fisher-Price Interactive. When she’s not painting and drawing, she’s hanging out with her kids and opinionated black cat in Nashville, Tennessee.

Program Overview

From seeing and touching step by step pieces of my illustration, to getting to be an art director and editor during the creation of a monster story I show young readers how artists bring words to life in my interactive school visits. My sweet spot for visits is 1st through 3rd graders, though I can do shorter versions for kindergarten and aged up versions for older elementary. I also have a high school level sessions for students interested in visual storytelling at the professional level. https://www.maryuhles.com
