Author Information

Christophe Merlin has always dreamed of being a race-car driver. The best result he's ever had in a race, however, is a broken ankle and a year off, which he dedicated to drawing. The author and illustrator of several books for children, Christophe Merlin divides his time between making art and rebuilding old cars in Paris, France.
