Carolrhoda Picture Books: Noah's Bark (PDF)

Stephen Krensky did not have the kind of childhood anyone would choose to write books about. It was happy and uneventful, with only the occasional bump in the night to keep him on his toes. He started writing at Hamilton College in upstate New York where he graduated in 1975. His first book, A Big Day for Scepters, was published in 1977, and he has now written over 100 fiction and nonfiction children's books––including novels, picture books, easy readers, and biographies. Mr. Krensky and his family live in Lexington, Massachusetts.



Rogé is a fine observer of the everyday life. He is largely inspired by urban scenes, passers-by and the many people who surround him in the cafés where he enjoys working on his sketches. He has a gift for making the past bounce into the present, for having comedy burst out of tragedy and for making the light flash in the darkness. He has a sensitive and intelligent look on life and shares his vision with delight.
Born and raised in Quebec, Rogé studied graphic design at Laval University. He began his career working as an art director for well-established advertising agencies. After a few years, he decided to take on a new challenge and volunteered for international cooperation projects. In the course of a three-month stay in the Dominican Republic, he painted large murals in a village and the experience gave him a new sense of direction. Upon his return, he settled in Montreal and decided to take on illustration full-time.
