When I wrote the text of The Great Bad Wolf in my home, I wanted to talk about domestic violence and I dreamed of being published in the White Square collection at Éditions Les 400 coups I didn't know that this text would allow me to meet Nathalie Dion for whom I would like as much for her illustrative skills as for her personality, that we would become friends. I didn't know that it would be translated into English, Italian and Korean that this album on sensitive subject would travel the world. And most importantly, I didn't know that he would give me the chance to go and discuss it in a round table in California at a prestigious teachers conference organized by Groundwood Books thanks to our English-speaking publisher, National Council of Teachers of English for which our level gratitude goes to the max. So here we are The congress takes place tomorrow. Butterflies in our stomach (my English is medium level let's say... I hope I pull through without too much pain 😅... ). Yesterday we played Tourists in Los Angeles and had a wonderful day discovering amazing landscapes, learning, laughing through tears and talking about you, our lovely readers. It's hard to believe we're actually experiencing this!
