Hervé Tullet was born in 1958. After studying Fine Art, he worked as an Art Director for ten years (1981–1992) before joining the advertising industry. In 1990, he produced his first illustrations for the press in France (Elle, Le Monde, Libération, Lire, Enfants Magazine, etc.) and has since been published in numerous magazines around the world. In 1994 he published his first book for children. Since then he has devoted himself to illustrating and painting. A great lover of children's literature, he is the father two boys and a girl, who never fail to inspire him.
