Pepe Pufferfish Is Stressed
Pepe is a pufferfish who likes to be alone sometimes. When a funky little crab approaches him, he gets a little nervous. As more fish visit him, he gets more and more stressed, not just internally, but also visually. His solution to all this stress is quite... unique. A funny and colorful children‘s picture book about wanting to be alone sometimes, being stressed and letting loose.
- Special illustration technique of stamps and markers
- Approach of explaining what stress might feel like (also to parents)
- Funny and easily recognizable characters
I‘m a graphic design student born and raised in Berlin. I‘m 25 and live alone with my two boy cats. One of my many creative hobbies is lino printing, so I cut some stamps and printed the characters of this book. The pufferfish is somewhat of a mascot to me, so I wanted to give him a personality and write a little story about him.
