Author Biography
Brigitte Weninger was born in Kufstein, Austria, and spent twenty years working as a kindergarten teacher before trying her hand at writing. She has since published more than fifty books, which have been translated into thirty languages worldwide. She continues to be heavily involved in promoting literacy and storytelling. Eve Tharlet was born in France but spent much of her childhood in Germany. After graduating from the Superior School of Decorative Arts in Strasbourg, France, she began working as a freelance illustrator in 1981 and quickly received international acclaim. Her big breakthrough came with the Davy series, the cute and cheeky bunny, which propelled her name around the world.
Reviews"The stories span roughly three to four pages each, joined by graceful images from Tharlet, which capably emphasize the comical and poignant moments within."-- "Publishers Weekly"
