Bear Despair: A 2012 New York Times Best Illustrated Book
Born in 1976, Gaëtan Dorémus received his degree from the School of Decorative Arts in Strasbourg, France. Once out in the world, he picked up a few other degrees while creating picture books and illustrations for the press. Dorémus has illustrated more than 70 books, including Bear Despair (Enchanted Lion), which was selected as a New York Times Best Illustrated Children’s Book of 2012; My Baby Crocodile, a striking, intelligent, and tender book, also published by Enchanted Lion; and Frigo Vide (Empty Fridge), which received a Bologna Ragazzi Award in 2015. From 2003 to 2014, Dorémus was a professor of illustration at his alma mater. He loves sharing his books through live reading and drawing performances, going on bicycle rides, and walking in the mountains.
