Ceramic murals

Book illustrations
Inglese has worked with children's author Dedie King to create a series of books that depict cultural elements of a specific country as seen through the eyes of a child narrator, called I See the Sun. The books are published in English and in the language of the country the child lives in, including Mandarin Chinese. The books began being published in 2010 by Satya House Publications.[15][16] In 2010, I See the Sun in China won an award from Creative Child magazine as well as the Teachers Choice Award for the Family.[5]
