Beatrice Alemagna made her first picture book at the age of eight and has since published over 20 books for children. She is a consummate storyteller who creates intimate and imaginative tales where words and pictures meld together seamlessly. Her techniques of illustration vary depending on the story of each book, but range from pencil and paint to collage and embroidery. Born in Bologna, Italy in 1973, Beatrice lives and works in France.
