Baum Gilles

Born in Mulhouse, Gilles Baum studied math and now teaches elementary school, which is equal parts exciting and stressful. He discovered children’s books while learning his trade as a writer. A single book changed his life: Yakouba. Later, he was able to meet its author through a school project. Since then, he has considered himself Thierry Dedieu’s student, and the luckiest man in all of literature to be able to say so.
