Victor Sekgothe is a children’s author and illustrator from Johannesburg, South Africa. He has a passion for creating stories that spark imagination, encourage kindness, and help children discover the courage already within themselves.

His debut picture book, The Moonbeam Blanket, introduces readers to Rosie Rabbit and her wonderful friends. They embark on a quest in a dark forest at night to find Rosie Rabbit’s cozy Moonbeam Blanket. They journey through magical adventures filled with friendship, hope, and gentle life lessons.

Victor hopes every Moonbeam Storybook becomes more than just a bedtime story. His dream is for each book to become a cherished family tradition—one that children ask to hear again and again, creating memories that last long after the lights are turned off.

When he’s dreaming up new adventures, Victor enjoys exploring fresh ideas, creating colourful illustrations, and imagining new characters who will one day join the growing Moonbeam Storybooks family.

For Victor Sekgothe, the dream was to create a world where children could fall asleep feeling a little braver, a little kinder, and a little more hopeful than they did the night before. 

As both the author and illustrator of The Moonbeam Blanket, Victor believes that stories have a remarkable ability to bring families together. A few quiet moments spent reading before bed can become treasured memories that children carry with them for a lifetime. That belief inspired the creation of Moonbeam Storybooks—a place where imagination shines brightly, kindness always matters, and every adventure leaves a gentle lesson tucked inside its pages.
