About ICAN
A network for children's books
Co-founded by Hannah Welch and Leanne Beardsley, ICAN provides a supportive creative community alongside opportunities, resources, events and industry connections for children's authors and illustrators.
ICAN also produces the weekly We Wrote a Book, Now What? podcast, sharing conversations and insight from the world of children's books — one part of a much wider network.
