				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>This story goes back to 2013. The making of the last twikga book, Tata &amp; Squack &#8211; Mission Elephant. Only recently I went through my old sketchbooks and decided to add some of the pages to this post. For more sketchbook galleries have a look under the tag <a href="https://www.dekker-stories.com/tag/sketchbook/">Sketchbook</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>The making of the next Tata&amp;Squack was in full progress. The pictures we took during our visit to Samburu, Kenya in 2012 were valuable input for our work. But the little plastic elephant had to do some posing for me as well. Elisabeth Visser was working on the storyline in Amsterdam and I created the visuals in Hamburg. Now and then we met to brainstorm or we used Skype to talk face to face. The illustrations are a creative mix of photographies, drawings and collages. I loved that stage of the creative process, because all the options were still open. What would Tata wear? How would the &#8220;lead-elphant&#8221; look like? Which scenes of the story were we going to illustrate? The creative team was back on the drawing board&#8230;</p>
<p>Tata&amp;Squack &#8211; Mission Elephant was published in 2014. For more information about the book, have a look in the portfolio of  <a href="https://www.dekker-illustration.com/portfolio-tata-squack/">Tata&amp;Squack books</a>&#8230;</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>For our elephant book I did a lot of studies on the anatomy of elephants. Their proportions and how they walk. How to bring across  their amazing wrinkly skin in an illustration? For Tata I developed a new outfit. The same old scruffy look but still different from the last book. For all my books I develop color themes and patterns. These I use to give landscapes and vegetation the same look and feel across the book. </div>

While making this book we realised just how threatened elephants are and that chances are small they will be part of our children’s future. With this book we would like to create awareness of the wild elephants in a child friendly way and help these magnificent animals. To survive elephants need our voice and especially our children’s voices. In the book Tata&#038;Squack learn from Noor, the grandmother of their elephant friend Harry, that his mother was killed by poachers when he was just a baby. &#8220;One dawn, after a night of heavy rain, Harry and his mother disappeared. I feared the worst, because the savannah has become a hunting ground for poachers. In the end Harry was found by researchers. He was standing alone on the sodden plain next to his mother’s tusk-less body, his ear bleeding. He was waiting for her to wake up from her long sleep.” Find out how Harry was rescued.

She guides the elephants carefully over the plains in search of water and food. Near the hills baboons of all sizes suddenly appear. The males are large and impressive, most of the females have babies clinging to their bellies or sitting on their backs. &#8220;Where are they heading, Noor?” Tata asks. “Do you see the rocks, high on the hill?” says Noor. “The baboons spend the night up there. At the end of the day it is a warm sunny place to sit and not many predators are able to attack them up there.” They see a string of baboons, big and small, zigzagging up the hill. What a funny parade. More information about <a href="https://www.dekker-illustration.com/portfolio-tata-squack/">Tata&amp;Squack</a> in the twikga books portfolio&#8230;</p></div>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>Op woensdag 21 januari begonnen de Voorleesdagen met het Nationaal Voorleesontbijt. Bekende voorlezers op scholen waren onder andere Prinses Laurentien en Eric Corton. Dit jaar was er extra aandacht voor vaders. Deze lezen doorgaans een stuk minder voor dan moeders. Dit blijkt ook uit de cijfers van het onderzoeksbureau Nielsen, dat veel onderzoek doet naar Story-telling and Story-selling. Kinderen in de leeftijd van 2 tot 8 jaar worden vooral &#8216;s avonds voor het slapen gaan voorgelezen. Als ritueel en -bonding- moment en ter ontspanning of om een onderwerp te onderzoeken. De (papieren) boekverkoop voor kinderen in deze leeftijd is dan ook stabiel. Gedrukte boeken hebben nog iets magisch, laten kinderen tactiel leren en verhogen de concentratie. Op latere leeftijd lezen kinderen steeds meer digitaal. Digitaal lezen is vooral gemakkelijk en onafhankelijk. Al is er grote concurrentie van games, app&#8217;s en you tube. School, vrienden, ouders en de bibliothecaresse hebben een belangrijke invloed op de keuze van tijdverdrijf van jonge kinderen. Wij van twikga staan open voor digitale ontwikkeling al zijn wij groot liefhebber van het gedrukte boek, omdat het de fantasie van kinderen stimuleert. De beelden die kinderen door lezen in hun hoofd vormen zijn van onschatbare waarde voor hun persoonlijke ontwikkeling en daarmee voor de ontwikkeling van de wereld. De foto is genomen in de Kinderboekwinkel aan de de Rozengracht in Amsterdam. Een winkel vol draken, prinsessen en prinsen, weerwolven en vampiers, kennis over de natuur, Matilde en Jip en Janneke.</p></div>

They hope that Harry&#8217;s big ears can cool them down. Then Squack rummages around in Tata&#8217;s bag and miraculously he pulls out a ‘pretty wild’ parasol. “Safi, Squack.” It is a peaceful, sleepy time of day. With the sound of insects humming and the sun at its peak, they stretch themselves out on the grass under the parasol. Wet elephant ears flap gently, as they fan a cooling breeze across their mud-plastered bodies.</p>

				<div class="et_pb_text_inner"><p>The Great Wildebeest Migration, is one of the most impressive events in the natural world, whereas more than two million animals migrate back and forth from the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya in order to find fresh grass to eat. On their trek their path is cut several times by rivers. Watching the frantic herds crossing can be very spectacular; there are often scenes of great panic and confusion. The wildebeest fear the water and the creatures that may hide in or near it. Sometimes tens of thousands gather and wait to cross and for no apparent reason, they turn and wander away from the water’s edge. Other times herds may cross back and forth, because they see others of their kind either in the process of crossing the river or grazing on the lush grass on the far side. Hence a lot of people call them &#8220;bewildered beest&#8221;.</p>
<p>In the twikga books Tata&#038;Squack &#8211; The Big Journey and Phanhabs Savanna, the crossings of the wildebeest have been portrayed in an adventurous, yet child friendly way. </p></div>

Al die verzamelde woorden, ideeën, visies, missies van schrijvers die ze met grote discipline en hard werken op papier hebben gezet. Zo stond niet lang geleden een bezoek van twikga aan Villa Paagman op het programma om Tata&#038;Squack Missie Olifant te promoten. Paagman Den Haag werd opgericht op 1 november 1951 aan de Frederik Hendriklaan. Het is nu bijna 63 jaar later en de winkel bestaat nog steeds. Ik begrijp nu waarom. Het is nog steeds een geweldige boekwinkel voor groot en klein met een zeer divers aanbod. Vooral voor de kleine lezertjes ontvouwt zich in Villa Paagman een waar sprookje waarin ze heerlijk kunnen zitten lezen of op ontdekkingstocht kunnen langs de mooiste, grappigste, spannendste en meest ontroerende verhalen. We zijn er dan ook trots op dat Tata&#038;Squack Missie Olifant deel gaat uitmaken van het assortiment. </p></div>

Harry starts running towards the river as fast as his legs can carry him, trumpeting happily. Joyfully he races into a group of elephants, bathing in the river. Trunks intertwine with his, hugging him fondly. The entire herd rumbles a welcome. Princes and princesses run into the water, their ears flapping, splashing one another with water. They see the older elephants join in the fun as they watch over the little ones. Crocodiles are never far away. Harry runs to a grand lady touching her with his trunk to greet her. “Harry, where have you been?” she asks, her trunk caressing him. Harry seems a little embarrassed by her attention. “You know me, Grandmother Noor,” he says. “I like to explore the savannah. Look who I brought with me, two new friends, Tata and Squack.” More information about <a href="https://www.dekker-illustration.com/portfolio-tata-squack/">Tata&amp;Squack</a> in the twikga books portfolio&#8230;</p></div>

De dieren worden steeds meer bedreigd doordat er in veel landen op hen wordt gejaagd. Door hun reis in Kenia en hun kennismaking met grote kuddes raakten Elisabeth en Tanja geïnspireerd om hun boodschap over te brengen. Want, zo vinden zij: de jeugd van nu, bepaalt onze toekomst van morgen. De jongeren zullen zich op een dag via goede doelen en natuurorganisaties moeten inzetten om de grote, grijze dieren te redden.”</p></div>
