Author Biography
Bruno Munari was an internationally acclaimed artist, graphic designer, and children's book creator. During the course of his career, he received many prizes and awards, including a Japan Design Foundation prize, and honorable mention by the Academy of Sciences in New York, and the Andersen Prize for best children's author of 1974.
Reviews"Graphic designer Bruno Munari is one of the most inventive picture book creators I know. I have been inspired, entertained, and in awe of his work since I was a graphic design student in Germany more than 50 years ago. And Zoo has been one of my favorites. I am delighted that it is available once again for a new generation of picture book readers of all ages."
