What my clients have to say:
"I was lucky to discover Dayne Sislen on LinkedIn and even luckier to have her agree to illustrate my first children’s book, Silly Sounding Sentences! Dayne is an amazing illustrator and extremely professional. She made the sentences in my alphabet alliteration book spring to life. Her illustrations will assist young readers with decoding because they match up exactly with each sentence. Dayne’s beautiful book cover will entice readers into picking it up to read. In addition, she has so much background knowledge about the publishing industry. Dayne was an extremely helpful resource! I highly recommend her and hope to meet Dayne one day in person. She’s the best!!"

"When I finished writing The Girl Who Found Christmas, I knew I needed a special illustrator. It was my incredible good fortune that I found Dayne Sislen. I told her that I had written about a little girl who was practically exploding with energy and joy. I wondered if Dayne could capture that in an illustration. I couldn’t picture it – I just knew what I was hoping to find.
Dayne surprised me and supported my dream every inch of the way. She captured everything from Belinda’s cat to her tree farm adventure and brought all of it to life. In both color (in the ebook format) and black and white (in the large, storybook format). I was a beginner and had no idea how lucky I was.
Anyone who is writing a children’s book and looking for a truly great illustrator, look for my friend Dayne Sislen."

Due to the limited word counts of children's books, the illustrations become equally if not more important to convey the message. Dayne was able to bring our story to life. She was not just our illustrator but our partner. She provided valuable insight and wisdom throughout the process. Dayne is a passionate illustrator and we are so grateful that we were able to work with her on our first book.
