About the Author
Aimée de Jongh is an award-winning comics author and animator from the Netherlands. She studied animation in Rotterdam, Ghent, and Paris. After graduating, she was asked to create a daily comic series for a Dutch national newspaper. This marked the start of a successful international career. The Return of the Honey Buzzard, her first graphic novel, won the Prix Saint-Michel for best Dutch-language comic and was made into a film in 2017. Her following books, Blossoms in Autumn and Taxi!, were translated worldwide and won awards in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, and Japan. De Jongh also worked as a graphic journalist in the refugee camps in Greece. Her interest in travel, ecology, and journalism has resulted in the historical graphic novel Days of Sand, her biggest project to date. When she's not drawing comics, de Jongh works in animation as a storyboard artist and director.
Reviews
"Achingly bittersweet . . . De Jongh's artwork is glorious, and the book is full of historical touchpoints and photos that tie the fictionalized story to real events."--Forbes
