Illustrator Laurent de Brunhoff is the son of Babar creator Jean de Brunhoff. He is an accomplished artist and a worthy heir to the legacy his father began in 1931. Laurent has originated dozens of Babar books over sixty years, including the New York Times bestselling Babar and the Succotash Bird, Babar's Museum of Art, Babar's Yoga for Elephants, among many others.
