PACO & les 4 Saisons de Vivaldi

Writing and storytelling. With a master’s degree in literature and a degree from Sciences Po, Élodie has been a culture journalist and presenter on Radio Classique since 2005. In 2009, she created a programme on air for children and for everyone who still feels like one: Des histoires en musique. For four years, she told young listeners a fairy tale every evening to introduce them to the finest pages of the classical repertoire. Élodie regularly takes to the stage to tell, with music, the stories she writes.

Illustrator. Magali was born near Paris in 1979. After studying at the Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg, where she attended Claude Lapointe’s workshop, she began illustrating her first picture books, including Les Sirènes de Belpêchao, which won the Prix Sorcières in 2006. Her work is often inspired by her passion for music; she has written or contributed to around a hundred books with Gallimard Jeunesse. In her Paco series, she has spent more than ten years drawing the musical wanderings of the already iconic yellow dog, in France and in many other countries.
