Anak Rimba Books was created by Abyan Junus-Nishizawa and Farah Landemaine who both have a shared interest in promoting creative content which focuses on endangered animals in Asia. They are also self-published authors of their first book, Why Don’t I Look Like You.

At YSDAF, Abyan will be conducting an art workshop with the lovely characters from Why Don’t I Look Like You. Participants (and their parents) will create a beautiful forest of Anak Rimba animals and friends. There will also be a storytelling session with Abyan as she tells the tale of of Timo and Tapir who goes on a journey to discover why he doesn’t look like his mother.
