Welcome to Episode 329 of Storycomic Presents! I'm your host, Barney Smith from storycomic.com. In this episode, we are thrilled to have the internationally celebrated and award-winning children's book author and illustrator, Cyndi Marko.

Cyndi Marko is known for her engaging and humorous children's books, which she both writes and illustrates. Born in Smithers, BC, Canada, Cyndi has spent her life immersed in the world of storytelling, drawing, and reading. Now residing in Edmonton, Alberta, she continues to create captivating stories for children, without forgetting the adults who might sneak a read too.

In this episode, we delve into Cyndi's latest work, "Sloth Sleuth," a graphic novel mystery that is perfect for fans of "The Bad Guys" and "Investigators." The book features Paz, the world's smartest sloth detective, who solves crimes in her sleep on the crime-ridden island of Winklefuss. We discuss Cyndi's unique style, her approach to writing with humor and intention, and how she ensures her books are enjoyable without talking down to kids.

Cyndi's passion for storytelling and her ability to have fun while creating her books are evident in her work. Join us as we explore the creative world of Cyndi Marko and her delightful characters.
