Collection: Anna Boulanger

"Does Anna Boulanger excel at pointillism because she's meticulous? Yet these dots are no smaller than her handwriting, nor less than her clear-line illustrations. Anna is also the author of children's books where her sardonic humor shines through in her stories, all told with great subtlety."

During her childhood, Anna Boulanger was immersed in the classics of Perrault, Grimm, and Andersen, the tales of One Thousand and One Nights, including Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, and Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. More than the book itself or even the illustrations, it was the stories that truly captivated her. As she grew older, she became interested in the mysteries of Agatha Christie, the fantastical short stories of Oscar Wilde, and the novels of Charles Dickens.
