Young children do not live in “Care Bear Land” but in the same world as us: a world where people can be angry, where they defend their rights, a world where adults have drinks, (sometimes) party and are (often) exhausted, a world where people can be tattooed and have pink hair, where mysterious collages dot the walls of the city, where we can eat pizza while sprawled out on a couch, and where there are different forms of love, family and parenthood.
It is this real world that we discover throughout the pages of this “picture book of the real life”, where the finesse, humor and bite of Émilie Chazerand’s texts are combined with the beauty of Anna Wanda Gogusey’s illustrations.

L’imagier de La Ville Brûle is a picture book unlike any other, guaranteed to have no blankets or bibs, but teeming with tender and funny details. It lets the rumor of the world enter the children’s rooms so that together we can exchange on the world in which we all live.

the authors

Émilie Chazerand is a nurse. Believing that a book is an excellent medicine, she thought that writing would be another way to take care of people, especially children. She is the author of many novels for children and teenagers.

Anna Wanda Gogusey is an illustrator and draws with the same jubilation anything cute or irreverent.
She works today for the press (Le Monde, Milk Magazine, Paris Mômes, Néon, Libération, Trois Couleurs...), for cultural institutions (Palais de Tokyo...), prestigious festivals, feminist collectives, and for publishing.
