This series of Character Illustrations was commissioned by Esplora Interactive Science Centre to bring the stories of four Maltese scientists to life in a fun, accessible format for children aged 4-7. Created as part of the “Science Career Storytime” compendium, these illustrations aim to inspire young children to explore science while providing diverse representation within the stories. Each character champions a different career in science, encouraging young readers to see themselves in these roles and consider science as a path for the future.

The illustrated characters include:

• Biologist
• Mechanical Engineer
• Chemist
• Teacher
