[Rolling Stone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rolling-stones-bitmoji-show-lens) magazine is now appealing for kids thanks to the Olimpia Zagnoli Rolling Stone illustrations for little rockstars. Italian-born Zagnoli is a well-known illustrator whose creations have been featured in several prestigious publications including the [New York Times](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/command-brand-hannah-brown) Sunday Review.

This time the artist is contributing to the September 2011 edition of Rolling Stone with some genuine rock-inspired posters for all the mini-rockstars out there. The result is adorably funny, and certainly appropriate for all audiences. The image of a child as Paul Stanley from Kiss is simply sensational.

This is not the first time Zagnoli worked on artistic ideas for kids; she is actually the art director of a children's magazine on iPad. Her work, even for adults, is rich in colors and dynamic drawings. In an interview for Lancia TrendVisions, she confessed that music, science, 60s French cinema and "[Disney](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-x-vespa) short films" play an important role in her daily inspiration. The Olimpia Zagnoli Rolling Stone illustrations are a testament to her talent.
