" My Pictures after the Storm has that rare sense of humour that appeals to children and adults. And it’s funny every time." Julia Marshall, Publisher
Eric Veillé was born in 1976 in Laval and studied at the Duperré School in Paris. While working as an artistic director in publishing, he decided one spring day to devote himself to writing and children’s book illustration. He has since released many books, as author and illustrator, including My Pictures after the Storm and The Bureau of Misplaced Dads.
"Clever, playful, with a mordant edge, this is sophisticated
silliness in warm shades of red and yellow, asking sly questions
about the relationship between words, pictures and meaning."
*The Guardian*
"At turns sublime and ridiculous… This is a terrific little book
that will amuse all out of proportion to its size."
*The Wall Street Journal*
"Eric Veille’s droll illustrations are vibrant and bold, and he
leaves plenty of space for readers to interpret what’s happened in
between."
*Readings (AUS)*
"Unexpected giggles await with every page turn."
*Publishers Weekly, starred review*
