Charles ( Chip) Kidd

Currently works as an associate director in the publishing house in New York City. He has created covers for novels, kids books, and comics. All of Chip's work has his own unique style he says," A signature look is crippling  because the simplest and effective solutions aren't dictated by style."

Kidd says ,"Kids love to express themselves, and are designers by nature- whether making posters for school, deciding what to hang in their rooms, or creating personalized notebook covers." This book was created to teach kids and parents how to change things into art and explain your ideas to the world. He gives ways on how to design art and how to take and explore different ways to expand what you want to create,
