“Amal” is a series of eight books for children suffering from PTSD.
The project aims to help these children through storytelling and exercises developed by psychologists.
I worked/am working closely with a team of experts including a psychologist and publishing experts to come up with the character designs, illustration style, coloring technique, and layout.
The story of Salim, a boy that has been through a traumatic event, becomes that of the readers. Kids learn several coping mechanisms techniques through the healing journey of Salim.
