Our Why
It is our ambition to love and care for illustrators whose work will impact the imagination of children for generations.
We believe that beautiful stories look and feel like something. They speak from a true and authentic experience. They teach us what it means to be human. They are instructive. They empower us to find strength in ourselves as we face obstacles and challenges. They show us there are things on this earth worth celebrating, protecting, and caring for. They allow us to dream and believe in the impossible.
Beautiful stories allow us to experience the world through someone else's eyes, to empathize with their struggles, and to imagine their triumphs. Beautiful stories inspire us to dream, to hope, and to create. They remind us that there is more to life than meets the eye, and that there is beauty to be found in even the darkest of places. At WendyLynn & Co., we strive to represent artists whose work will visually engage and entertain but also deeply move and inspire young readers.

At WendyLynn & Co., we believe beautiful stories can do quiet, powerful things. I first felt that magic as a child reading Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs aloud—discovering how joy and imagination could light up a room. That same spirit guides our work today: nurturing artists who create from joy and purpose, so their art can help young readers feel seen, inspired, and strong.

As a kid, I delighted in the colorful worlds that books invited me to explore. They introduced me to sparkling characters and made magic feel entirely possible. Words were my playground, so it's no surprise that they still are.
Now, as then, I look for stories that reveal joy and light in unexpected places. That's why I'm drawn to picture books. The stories we read when we are kids stay with us our whole lives, connecting us to the world in a way that nothing else ever does. They should be beautiful.

During my youth, I dedicated all my spare moments to revisiting my beloved books and engaging in creative play with Legos. Nothing could compare to immersing myself in different worlds and embarking on thrilling adventures alongside my cherished characters.
Our stories shape our identities – the tales we share with others, the narratives we believe about ourselves, and the stories we present to the world. There is unparalleled liberation in a captivating story.
For me, having the opportunity to contribute to storytelling is a dream realized.
