Jean de Brunhoff

    9. december 1899 – 16. október 1937

    Jean de Brunhoff bol francúzsky spisovateľ a ilustrátor, známy najmä ako spolutvorca postavy Babara. Jeho dielo sa vyznačuje pôvabným štýlom a melancholickým podtónom, ktorý dodáva detským príbehom nečakanú hĺbku. Brunhoffove príbehy, často inšpirované rodinným životom, skúmajú témy domova, rodiny a dobrodružstva s citom pre detail a vizuálne rozprávanie. Jeho umelecký prístup a zmysel pre svet zanechali nezmazateľnú stopu v literatúre pre deti.

      Such joy in Celesteville! Babar and Celeste have had triplets. The smallest, Alexander, has a knack for getting into predicaments. Between getting stuck in the treetops and being chased by a crocodile, he certainly keeps Babar on his toes, but the king readily admits, “Truly it is not easy to bring up a family, but how nice the babies are!” The fifth Babar story is a wonderful and heartwarming salute to parenthood which every Mom and Dad will appreciate.

      This charming French illustrated classic follows the adventures of the world’s best-loved elephant, Babar. “If you love elephants, you will love Babar and Celeste,” writes A. A. Milne in his preface to The Story of Babar. “And if you have never loved elephants, you will love them now.” Jean de Brunhoff’s tales of Babar have charmed readers around the world for 80 years. His stories have followed the king of the elephants as he builds a city, founds a family and even meets Father Christmas. Tested by difficult trials – from snakes to fire to runaway prams – he always comes out on top, with the help of patience, determination and, on one memorable occasion, a flight of winged elephants. One of the most iconic series of animal books in history, Babar has become a household name both as a character in children’s books and on TV.
