Arianna Vettraino

Arianna is an illustrator based in Edinburgh. She believes deeply in the powerful role children’s books can play in helping to educate, inform, and inspire young people; and hopes to use her illustrations for this purpose. ‘That Time of the Month’ is her first children’s book which she created whilst studying at university. After reaching out to the charity Days For Girls (UK), expressing her desire to create a book on periods, Arianna was put in contact with Rosie (the author), who shared the belief that a picture book aiming to demystify and encourage openness about periods was needed.
