Happy 97th Birthday Aliki!! She has written 60 fiction and nonfiction titles for children, and illustrated dozens of books written by other writers.

Some of her books you can find in our collection are Milk From Cow to Carton, My Five Senses, How a Book Is Made, Mummies Made In Egypt, and many more.

"I write fiction out of a need to express myself. I write nonfiction—out of curiosity and fascination. And I draw in order to breathe." -Aliki
