  2. Hi Diana,

    We followed the trail and found our way to your very beautiful illustrations and stories. We would love you to contribute some map inspired whimsy to our next issue. Please email us at info@bigkidsmagazine.com if you are interested in talking more about how we work with invited artists.

    We have many many contributions sent in from all over the world for each issue and are not able to fly free mags to everyone, as much as we would love to! We do however donate a copy for every subscription received to a child who might not otherwise be able to access it. We are enormously grateful for the generosity of all who contribute and trust that there is some value in being featured in our printed pages.

    Warmly,

    Lilly and Jo x
