Clémentine Beauvais

I was born in Paris in 1989 and though I started to read children’s books pretty early, I somehow never stopped. As a result, I’ve become a writer, reader and student of children’s literature. I’ve now been living and studying in Cambridge (UK) for seven years and have become a doctor. Well, not the type that saves people’s lives. The type that scribbles ‘PhD’ after their name and rambles on about beauty, truth and the value of (all) literature. Worth striving for, I think! More about my academic work here.

The other thing I do is write books – children’s books, surprisingly enough. In fact, it’s not ‘the other thing’. It’s the first thing I ever did, really – long before I heard that you could actually analyse books for a living, I wanted t

Deanna Kizis

Deanna Kizis is an author and journalist who could not put books down as a kid. She read them in the car, on vacation -- she even read them in the bath!

Now Deanna writes her own children's books, including PUGGLETON PARK, books 1 and 2 (ages 6 to 10), and a very silly picture book called PLEASE DON'T READ THIS BOOK!

She's a mom to a little girl who is also book obsessed, along with a cat, a dog, and a fish known as "Famous Fish" because he once slid down the drain while Deanna was cleaning his tank and she got him out and gave him mouth to gill resuscitation! (True story! It was gross!) Her favorite things include having a dance party, taking long naps, giving presents and eating chocolate. And reading, of course. Oh, and saving fish. Kind

Virginie Grimaldi

(Du site officiel de l'auteur) :

Je suis née le en 1977 près de Bordeaux, où je vis toujours.

J’ai commencé à dévorer les livres dès que j’ai su lire. La Bibliothèque rose, la Bibliothèque verte, puis de nombreux romans qui me faisaient vivre mille et une vies.

J’avais huit ans quand j’ai écrit mon premier roman sur un cahier de brouillon vert au dos duquel figuraient des tables de multiplication. Il parlait d’amour, de mer et d’un soleil qui mettait trente pages à se coucher.

En sixième, je répondais « Écrire des livres » à la question « Que voulez-vous faire plus tard ? » sur les fiches que l’on remplissait en début d’année. Pas à chaque fois, parce qu’il m’est aussi arrivé de vouloir être styliste. Ça n’a pas duré longtemps : tout le monde v

Christelle Dabos

Christelle Dabos was born in 1980 on the French Riviera and grew up in a home filled with classical music and historical puzzles. More imaginative than cerebral, she begins to scribble her first texts on the benches of the faculty. Settled in Belgium, she intends to be a librarian when a disease occurs. Writing then becomes an escape from the medical machinery, then a slow reconstruction and finally second nature. Meanwhile, she enjoys the society of Plume d´Argent, a community of authors on the Internet. It was thanks to their encouragement that she decided to take on her very first literary challenge: to enter the First Youth Novel Contest. Great winner among the three finalists, Christelle Dabos has written 4 books in the "La Passe-Miroi

Sophie Jomain

Sophie tient à peine sur ses pieds quand elle apprend qu’être bavard n’est pas le privilège des grands. Elle utilise les mots et récite des poésies toutes aussi insolites les unes que les autres, sans toujours en comprendre le sens, mais ça fait son petit effet. C’est sûrement à ce moment-là qu’elle est atteinte du virus de l’expression, d’abord au micro dans le brouhaha d’un piano-bar (le jazz, son premier grand coup de cœur), et longtemps après, avec quelques cinq cents pages d’un livre bien épais.

Plus tard, ses parents la promènent partout à un rythme effréné, si bien que, prise d’une crise de déplacement aiguë, elle se retrouve en Angleterre à l’âge de 18 ans, où sans se défendre plus que ça, elle se laisse séduire par l’Union Jack. Dep

Claire Castillon

Claire Castillon fait son entrée sur la scène littéraire française en septembre 2000, elle n'a alors que 25 ans. Le grenier, un premier roman (éditions Anne Carrière), surprenant et dérangeant, retient l'attention des critiques et séduit un large public. Claire Castillon récidive avec Je prends racine (éditions Anne Carrière), un second roman qui assoit son statut de romancière tout en l'affranchissant des étiquettes. La reine Claude publiée en mai 2002 (éditions Stock) l'installe définitivement parmi les auteurs français qui comptent.
