Chris Van Dusen Pořadí knih
Chris Van Dusen je autorem a ilustrátorem dětských knih, jehož styl je inspirován klasickými autory jako Dr. Seuss a Robert McCloskey. Jeho práce se vyznačuje smyslem pro rytmus a detail, a často se zaměřuje na neobvyklé a humorné situace. Van Dusenův umělecký styl se formoval již v dětství, kdy trávil hodiny kreslením, a později se rozvinul prostřednictvím studia výtvarného umění a práce pro dětské časopisy. Jeho debutová kniha vzešla z nápaditého spojení vizuálního konceptu a chytlavého rýmu, což je charakteristické pro jeho další tvorbu.
