Bircham, Jess: - Jess Bircham has been illustrating children's books for over a decade. She is most comfortable with a pencil in her hand and a sketchbook full of her fun and whimsical characters. Jess was raised in Bath, England, and much of her art is inspired by her early years growing up in the English countryside. She is a mother of two incredibly gifted boys and lives in a storybook log cabin in the mountains of Washington state, USA, with her husband, children, horses, dogs, cats and chickens!
