Emilie Boon
|
|
Emilie Boon was born in the Netherlands and spent her childhood in California and Mexico. She is the illustrator or author-illustrator of more than twenty books. Ella and Monkey at Sea was inspired by Emilie’s own childhood experience sailing to America. There really was a hurricane and Emilie really did draw a picture of the sun during the storm! “Like Ella, children are resilient and creative when facing change. I hope this book will speak to all children and especially those who have left their homes and loved ones behind to embark on journeys to new homes.” Emilie lives in the Boston area.
