Overview

The Adventure of Sherri the Pop-Top Trailer: A New Home is a story about finding happiness in a new place when the world has suddenly turned upside-down. Told through the eyes of a resilient and brave little camping trailer, the story explores the ideas of displacement, loss, and fear, and how they can be transformed by exploring new places and reaching out to new friends, to find the familiar in the unfamiliar. Appropriate for children ages 5-7 and anyone who loves camping.

Sherri is an old-style pop-up camper who has to figure out life and how to deal with different situations she encounters while traveling with her owners. Along the way, she meets old friends, makes new friends, and learns lots about the outdoor world.

About the Author

Sharareh Khosravani is a Cincinnati artist whose work spans large installations to interpretive work, to book illustration. Much of her work explores concepts of loss and otherness that stem from the frequently jarring experience of solo immigration in today's zeitgeist. Her work is sometimes confrontational and invites the viewer to consider the fragility and tenuousness of their own position within a broader social context. Recent works have devoted energy to interpreting the ongoing refugee crises through illustration and large-format art works.

Ganesh is a founder and partner of Ganesh Raman Design Company, LLC., founded in 2013 and beginning business in 2018. Prior to launching his design career, he worked for many years as a structural engineer and draws on that rigorous technical background to inform his creative inspirations. His architectural training is from the University of Cincinnati: Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning (DAAP), where he will complete his Masters in Architecture in 2020.

Ganesh's artistic background is wide-ranging, crossing the boundary from visual arts, to music, to jewelry design.
