Happy Birthday, Jesus uses entertaining illustrations to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas. The author tells the account of Jesus' humble birth, encouraging children to pray for guidance in the midst of whatever their everyday lives may bring.
Born and raised in Texas, Olivia Orr's love for art began at a young age where she dreamed of illustrating children's books. She started with drawing and watercolor, and then moved on to oil and sculpture in college where she studied Studio Art at University of North Texas.When Olivia and her husband moved to Colorado, she dove back into watercolor while she was pregnant with her first. After asking Jesus to awaken new creativity through her art, she soon realized her passion for illustrating in watercolor and painted a series of animals for her first-born. Those animals are how Olivia illustrated her first children's book the following year. This book is Olivia's first taste of seeing her dream come to life.
