Jill Murphy

    5 luglio 1949 – 18 agosto 2021

    Jill Murphy è un'acclamata autrice e illustratrice il cui lavoro risuona profondamente con i giovani lettori attraverso le sue narrazioni accattivanti e il suo distintivo stile visivo. Esplora magistralmente le dinamiche della vita familiare, spesso ritraendo situazioni caotiche ma commoventi con un acuto senso dell'umorismo e dell'empatia. La capacità di Murphy di fondere la narrazione fantasiosa con esperienze relazionabili rende le sue storie sia accattivanti che durature. Il suo approccio unico, che combina illustrazioni vivide con testo spiritoso, crea mondi immersivi che accendono gioia e meraviglia nei bambini.
