Elizabeth Warren’s Big, Bold Plans


Illustrations and lettering for the picture book biography of Elizabeth Warren, authored by Laurie Ann Thompson, published by Simon & Schuster's Atheneum in May 2020.

"The narrative concludes prior to the end of Warren’s presidential run and, although she did not get the nomination, the ending of the book is still hopeful and empowering. Readers are left with the feeling that improving the lives of others is the real goal and running for president is just one path to incite change. Chapman’s lovely watercolor illustrations bring Warren to life throughout the decades. Fans of her beloved golden retriever will be thrilled to spot Bailey in the background. . . . A laudatory biography of a leader in contemporary American politics."
