Passionate about history and children's literature, Corinne Delporte spent her childhood with her nose in books. After obtaining a Master's degree in History and a second one in Communication, she leaves France to settle in Montreal, where she strengthens her love of books by becoming a children's book editor. The power of stories to make children dream, laugh, and think encourages her to start writing stories herself.

A picnic in the Rain is her first picture book. See less
