Something about the illustrator
When Aurelie was Martin’s age, her dad spent several months in China for his job. So she tried to think very hard about her childhood to illustrate this story. She also remembered “The Blue Lotus”, a Tintin adventure that she read again and again when she was little.
Young illustrator Aurélie Guilleret was born in 1975 in France. After a diploma in Decorative Arts, she becomes a children’s illustrator. She has illustrated numerous books and works a lot with the press, and especially with us, Bayard!
