Jean-Thomas Ungerer, noto anche come Tomi, è stato un illustratore francese celebre per le sue illustrazioni provocatorie e politicamente cariche, oltre che per i suoi libri per bambini. Le sue opere esplorano frequentemente i confini del gusto e della morale con un'immaginazione visiva unica. L'arte di Ungerer è ricca di ironia e commento sociale, presentata con schiettezza intransigente e uno stile distintivo.
