Alain Grée is a French author and illustrator of children's books. He has had over 300 books published, which have been translated into 20 different languages. He has also worked as a children's broadcaster on French national television, produced three detective novels, ten ship navigation books and been a journalist for 20 years for Voiles et Voiliers (sailing ships) magazine. He is currently a graphic designer and editor for various advertising publications. Alain's main hobby is sailing. He's owned several boats since the 1970s and has crossed the Atlantic Ocean twice. He finds his sailing trips provide the perfect time out to work on new children's stories and illustrations.
"Alain Greé's illustrations are as beautiful as ever - having a
delightful vintage feel to them that I find utterly entrancing. The
book works brilliantly for children who are logical thinkers, or
who maybe need a little bit of encouragement to think about things
a bit more in terms of how things work and don't work. It's almost
a first engineering text book in disguise!"--Being Mrs C "http:

"Alain Gree uses his beautifully nostalgic feeling and hilariously
funny illustrations to bring the text to life. This book covers
scientific ideas in a brilliantly entertaining way. A great
starting point for developing scientific thinking and reasoning as
well as developing an understanding of risk taking."--Magpie That

"Fans of Alan Greé and his charming vintage style rejoice! This
Spring these two lovely books featuring Romeo the dog are hitting
shelves. One is for young toddlers and is all about city life while
the other appeals to a slightly older audience and is all about
being inventive and never giving up. Both are completely bright and
beautiful! Spring is looking good!"--book.nerd.mommy "Instagram,

persistence whilst they are laughing at his unsuccessful attempts.
As well as reading the delightful story, there are lots of
opportunities to discuss Romeo's ideas and what he could have done
better."--The Ladybirds' Adventures "http:

and brings up fun discussion with children about
problem-solving."--Midwest Book Review: Children's Bookwatc
