Belgian illustrator Anne Crahay has been selected by the Bologna Book Fair this year, for "Suzie's Smile" (CotCotCot éditions, 2019). I have blogged this artists work many times over the years and I am thrilled for her.
'To reassure those around her, Susie invents a thousand paper smiles to replace her own, which has disappeared. "Every morning, as we put on our socks, I hung a smile on my ears." Everything returns to normal with these defensive smiles. Until the day when the paper smile flies away and Susie finally has the opportunity to really talk to her parents about everything she had never told them.'
