Abigail Marble
Abigail Marble has had her nose buried in one book or another since the day
she learned how to read. Encouraged by a wonderful teacher, she began to
write and illustrate stories in second grade. The most famous (among her
family members, at least) was entitled A Dragon, and featured the memorable
line “…and he crunched fifteen villagers!” (The accompanying illustration is
too graphic to be reproduced here.)
Abigail was an art major at Brown University, and also studied in the
illustration department at Rhode Island School of Design. She subsequently
worked as a freelance graphic designer for about 8 years, while continuing to
work on illustrations and children’s stories. My Secret Bully (written by Trudy
Ludwig and published by Riverwood Books) was published in February, 2004.
More recently, she illustrated "Gulmamadak the Great," by Tamim Ansary.
Abigail’s current projects include: an unusual counting book; an adventurous
bed-time story; and a lively story about a little girl with an out-sized
imagination and her very patient grandpa. You can see more of her work at
