About Sibylle von Olfers<\/h2>\n

Sibylle von Olfers was a German art teacher and nun and worked as a children’s author and illustrator. Well-known for her blend of natural observation and simple design in the art nouveau style, her work has been likened to Kate Greenaway and Elsa Beskow<\/a>. Encouraged by her aunt, writer and painter Marie von Olfers, Sibylle studied at art college in Berlin.<\/p>\n

At aged 25 she took the name Sister Maria Aloysia and published her first picture book, the story of the root children<\/a>. She created various more picture books in the following decade before her untimely death. Her legacy is a collection of beloved children’s books including the story of the snow children, the story of the wind children<\/a>, the story of the butterfly children, the story of little Billy Bluesocks and the princess in the forest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
