Grégoire Laforce Author

Grégoire Laforce is a former military man who is slowly rediscovering his more childlike side. Through his work in the community, he discovered firsthand the importance of engaging men in preventing gender-based violence. The Lost Drop is his first children’s book, inspired by his many years of practicing Tai chi. He and his family can often be caught having wild kitchen dance parties in their home in Gatineau, Canada. Benjamin Flouw graduated from a CG animation school in France and moved to London to create backgrounds for Cartoon Network’s The Amazing World of Gumball. Today, he works as a designer and illustrator for children’s books, films, and advertisements for Gallimard Jeunesse, the New York Times, Variety, and Reader’s Digest, among others. His influences run from mid-century illustrators such as Miroslav Šašek and Mary Blair to ’90s low-poly video games. Flouw lives in Paris.
