To create, realize and take care of my Website, I was able to count on many people. Special thanks to Philippe Barey, Diane Primeau, Stéphane Bergeron, Linda Cotter, Stéphanie Giroux, Chloé Giroux-Bertrand, Guillermo Siméon, Sébastien Thompson and my wife Carole, « la maman pieuvre » whom I adore.
Oh I forgot ! My dear cat Gustave.
I was asked to post a biography to help a grade two class in their projects. Here it is (in French): Bruno’s Biography.
As a guest of honour, I was photographed a lot. Below are some pictures I am sharing with you.
I got many books published during this year. Here is some titles:
Nicolas, joueur étoile
Nicolas, fou du soccer
Papa est un paresseux
Maman est une pieuvre
I also have other stories waiting to be approved by two publishers of children’s books. I would like all the stories to be published but nothing is certain yet. For now I am working on the sketches of Le bébé de Yayaho which is keeping me busy. I am waiting patiently for Papa est un super zéro to be printed.
Recently, at the Salon du Livre de Montréal, I met many authors and illustrators. I had so much fun meeting Dominique Demers, Philippe Béha and Gilles Tibo who are three very well known figures in the children’s literature.
At Soulières Editors I made a new friend called Mylène Gilbert-Dumas, the author of Mort suspecte au Yukon which is a book for teenagers. I am looking forward to read it.
If you didn’t come to Le Salon, you should have been there to see la Fée Nomène in action. I’ll let you in on a little secret: La Fée Nomène is the phenomenal Carole Forget, author of the Mamans series!
There will soon be a new book about Nicolas. In which he is playing soccer with his friends. It will be ready on time for the next Le salon du livre de Québec.
Now that I am finished with the water color illustrations of Nicolas, fou du soccer and Maman est une pieuvre, I divide my time between coloring Nicolas, l’étoile du hockey and school visits.
Maman est une pieuvre will be available in stores by the middle of February.
I am training a super soccer team. With players who are nine or ten years old. As for me, I just ended my own soccer season last Friday. I was on the latino’s team… and we won in the finals! Hurray!
Papa est un super zéro will be the next in the “papa” series… Don’t worry, this daddy will actually be super!
