Anne-Kathrin Behl, born in 1983, has illustrated and written many children's books since 2009. With her mother having a bookstore, she has always loved children's books and, as soon as she could draw and write, Anne made her own little books and wished to become a professional children's book illustrator. She studied Illustration at the HAW in Hamburg and later moved to Celle, a little town in northern Germany, where she now lives with her husband and her two sons.
