Taming Horrible Harry

Lili Chartrand trained formally as an artist, and then worked for several years in film animation. Passionate about reading, she discovered that writing children’s books allowed her to combine many of the things she loves to work with most: words, images, and color. Writing children’s books lets her enter a world that is full of magic. Lili is the author of five books, the first of which, Malédiction, farces et attrapes!, was shortlisted for the Prix Hackmatack.

Rogé began his career as artistic director at the marketing agencies Cossette and LG2. He now dedicates himself full time to illustration, painting and writing. His pictures, and many of his stories are featured in over twenty books for children, several of which have been honored through award nominations, including the prestigious Governor General’s Award which he won in 2006. With one foot on the Magdalen Islands, and another in Montreal, Rogé has a unique perspective on life which provides a delightful, and very funny, view of the world.
