A Wildly Mismatched Romance

Working from England, Sholto created thirty-five vibrant illustrations for Roger Becker’s upcoming self-published title Lions Shouldn’t Marry Beavers, penned in the United States and set for release early next year. The story follows the unlikely love between a lion and a beaver - two creatures who discover they’re hilariously unsuited for one another.

With his flair for expressive character work and playful anthropomorphism, Sholto captures both the humor and the heart of Becker’s light-hearted take on human relationships.

This early peek lets readers enjoy a taste of the fun and warmth that will soon be delighting shelves.
