An international book affair...How books get their own personal story.

To please a little girl, sometime some nice uncle would go outside their ways to make it happen: This is the case of my friend Sam. Uncle Sam lives in Australia but wanted to surprise his little niece Alicia, with a dedicated copy of the french version of Lyli.

He ordered it on Amazon from Australia, and had it shipped to my place in Switzerland. I wrote a little message inside, wrapped it, and Sam came to pick it up in person straight from the airport, to then run to his date with his family in France where he would offer the book to his niece so he'd have something special for their reunion after years appart...

Isn't he the loveliest uncle?

I love how my story became many books, and those have now their own personal stories...What a nice feeling!

Amsterdam in wonderland...

I recently felt a little bit out of source and inspiration.
There is nothing like a little trip abroad in good company to shift your vibration, and recapture the magic of life.
Amsterdam in the springy sun... A little trip to Wonderland.
I think I finally found the palette and feel for my next picture book! Months of scrimbling around and feeling stuck, and suddenly it's when you stop and have some fun that the whole picture comes together!
How ironic!
