Ein Hasentag, wie man ihn mag!

Norman Klaar was born in the beautiful Rhineland in-between the then capital city Bonn and the cathedral city Cologne in 1980. Today, he writes books for children and tries teaching himself how to draw.

Sébastien Braun was born in Strasbourg, the hometown of Gustave Doré and Tomi Ungerer (his heroes). As a child he spent countless hours drawing, but at secondary school there were no art classes, so he filled his homework with doodles and portraits of his teachers. At university he initially studied history – fortunately, the building was shared with the art department, and when he saw the students sketching, knew he had to change. After that, he spent a few years teaching applied art to sixth formers, before taking the plunge as a freelance illustrator. His first commissions were for magazines in Paris, and when he moved to London, he developed his portfolio for children’s books.
