I have an illustrator celebrity crush on Marc Boutavant. I just bought his Around the World with Mouk, and it’s a candy-coloured cute-infused thing of beauty, complete with fun impermanent vinyl stickers to populate its pages. Boutavant’s illustrations have us traveling the world with little Mouk, and the entire experience is like if Richard Scarry and M. Sasek got it on at Disneyland during the It’s a Small World ride.

    His stuff really is amazing... I wish he had a proper website. I'd love to learn more about his process.
  • I bought this for my 5-year-old daughter for Christmas and she is completely in love with it. It takes forever to read b/c of all the random little speech bubbles, but it's worth it. Now, if I could just allow myself to share the stickers with her...
  • Marc's stuff is really fun. I discovered his stuff back in December while shopping at a cool store in downtown Phoenix.
