Looking for some kidlit illustrator love for the holiday season gifting? In addition to books, of course, here are some Etsy shops where you can find traditionally published children’s book illustrators. If anyone knows of others, feel free to post in the comments section! Please note that I’m only listing shops that currently have items for sale (so have left out my own :-)).
Also see Travis Jonker’s Ultimate Children’s Literature Illustrator Gift Guide, which includes non-Etsy places where you can buy children’s illustrator stuff.

If you know of other traditionally published children’s book illustrators with Etsy shops that currently have items for sale, feel free to list them (ideally with the Etsy shop URL) below. In answer to the question “why only traditionally published? why only shops with items for sale?”: I didn’t have time to list ALL shops, sorry; if anyone out there is willing to take on that project, feel free to post your list below.
