Anita Jeram

Anita Jeram is best known as an illustrator and author of children's books, particularly the modern classic "Guess How Much I Love You?", written by Sam McBratney.

Constantly drawing, Anita's artwork extends beyond purely illustration. With a gift to capture character and emotion using a simple pen mark or a sparingly placed brush stroke, she creates images full of empathy for her subjects. Anita's constant inspiration is the natural world and particularly the menagerie of animals that share her family's life. "A Dog's Life" is a collection specially created for Aquarelle Publishing and each artwork captures the essence of the subject with humour and warmth.

She studied Illustration at Manchester Polytechnic where she was signed to Walker Books, before graduating. Anita now lives by the sea in Northern Ireland, with her family and animals.
