Chris Naylor-Ballesteros is originally from Bradford, England and studied illustration and graphic design at Bradford College of Art. In 2000 he moved to France where, among other things, he was an English teacher before working in newspaper layout and design.
When his children were small, he realized that he loved the picture books he read to them . . .sometimes even more than his children did! The Picture Book Bug had truly bitten.
Chris has since written and illustrated several books and is currently thinking about the next one, probably with a cup of tea in hand at home near Limoges, France.
