Anita was born in Portsmouth and from an early age had a love of drawing, she was known to draw everywhere she went and on anything she could find. Anita has a real love for animals and they have always been her favourite subject to sketch.
It wasn't until I researched into Anita Jeram a little further I realised she illustrated the famous bedtime children's story 'Guess How Much I Love You?' written by Sam McBratney. The classic story is about a father rabbit 'Big Nutbrown Hare' and his little son 'Little Nutbrown Hare' who throughout tell each other "how much I love you". Even today, Anita says,“Every time I read this book, I want to cry. The story reminds me of my son, who often plays these games with me when it is time for bed.” It is a beautifully illustrated book that both adults and children alike love and cherish.
