Charli Safari is officially here, brought to life by Divers Doodles, our parent company founded in 2020. It all started with a visit home to introduce our newest family member, Charlee, to her grandparents. During that trip, my mom reminded me of a dream she’d had years ago—creating a children’s book series inspired by endangered animals, including the nickname “Charlee” we’d given our daughter. A few more conversations, a lot of research, and incredible support from my husband later, Divers Doodles was born with the hope of illustrating Charli Safari myself.

This small business is the start of a bigger vision, one we hope to pass down to Charlee, as she’s the heart and inspiration behind it all. Our goal is to expand Charli Safari into a full series, complete with beautiful illustrations, books, and hopefully much more! For now, I’m learning, creating, and sharing my creative designs to make this dream a reality.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us!
