Whimsy Book

 Whimsy

Written by Krystal S. Lowe | Translated by Kizzy Crawford | Illustrated by Jessie Begum


Whimsy is the story of a young girl who sees beauty in everything but herself. Through her love of nature, and her adventures flying with birds, running with squirrels, and gliding with ducks, Whimsy comes to see the beauty that has been inside her all along.

Mae Whimsy yn stori am ferch ifanc sy’n gweld prydferthwch ym mhopeth heblaw amdani hi ei hun. Drwy ei chariad at natur, a’i hanturiaethau, mae Whimsy o’r diwedd yn dod i weld y prydferthwch sydd wedi bod y tu mewn iddi drwy gydol yr amser.

I wrote Whimsy in 2014 and spent years refining the story to bring it to the place it is now - a story about love of nature and self. It is my hope that this story will allow all young people to go on the same journey of self-discovery that Whimsy goes on to see the beauty that is inside them all.
