Ewa Kozyra-Pawlak

Jednym z jej pierwszych wspomnień jest graffiti, które z wielką pasją wykonała kredkami świecowymi na ścianie swojego pokoju (korzystając z okazji, chciałaby przeprosić późniejszego właściciela tego lokalu). Bardzo wcześnie, z absolutną powagą, poświęciła się sztukom plastycznym, a szczególnie rzeźbie w plastelinie, haftom i szydełkowaniu. Gdy tylko ukończyła studia na ASP we Wrocławiu, niezwłocznie wróciła do klejenia, szycia i dziergania. Zilustrowała kilkanaście książek dla dzieci, pisze wiersze, kaligrafuje i tłumaczy, a w jej pracowni znajdują się tysiące kolorowych szmatek. Sypia na nich biało-rudy kocur, bohater bajki Ja, Bobik, czyli prawdziwa historia o kocie, który myślał, że jest królem, wyróżnionej przez Polską Sekcję IBBY w kon

Catarina Kruusval

Hon ägnar sig helhjärtat åt eget bokskapande och är en av Sveriges mest älskade bilderboksmakare. Catarina har illustrerat över 40 berättelser om Ellen och Olle och andra barn på olika vardagliga äventyr – och även Fia med alla sina leksaksdjur. Böckerna om de här populära bilderboksfigurerna är suveräna högläsningsböcker. Dessutom har Catarina tagit sig an en lång rad kända barnvisor och illustrerat dem i böcker för de allra minsta – en mycket uppskattad bokserie.

Formen är viktig för Catarina, det ska vara tydligt, och hennes bilder, som är tuschteckningar eller akvarell, är ofta detaljrika. Maneret är mjukt, vänligt och sinnligt. Men i berättelserna finns också dramatik – på barnens nivå. Skogen och havet, tryggheten kontra oberoendets ut

Julia Donaldson

Growing up
I grew up in a tall Victorian London house with my parents, grandmother, aunt, uncle, younger sister Mary and cat Geoffrey (who was really a prince in disguise. Mary and I would argue about which of us would marry him).

Mary and I were always creating imaginary characters and mimicking real ones, and I used to write shows and choreograph ballets for us. A wind-up gramophone wafted out Chopin waltzes.

I studied Drama and French at Bristol University, where I met Malcolm, a guitar-playing medic to whom I’m now married.

Busking and books
Before Malcolm and I had our three sons we used to go busking together and I would write special songs for each country; the best one was in Italian about pasta.

The busking led to a career in singing a
