"Dudley Designs a Train" is a children's book I wrote and illustrated to inspire young designers. The story follows Dudley the chimpanzee, a designer who collaborates with his friend Ellie the elephant to design and build a train together.
I created this book because I noticed that design is often conflated solely with visual or graphic design in early education. I wanted to highlight the problem-solving and collaborative aspects of the field.
The book is available in multiple formats including physical paperback and hardcover editions, as well as a Kindle ebook.
