Joan Sandin

    Joan Sandin is een kinderboekenschrijfster en -illustratrice wiens werken zich vaak verdiepen in de immigrantenervaring. Haar betrokkenheid bij dit thema was geworteld in haar familiegeschiedenis, waarbij haar grootvader emigreerde van Zweden naar Wisconsin. Sandin besteedde tijd aan wonen in Zweden en deed uitgebreid onderzoek om haar geliefde klassieke boeken te maken die deze reis verkennen.
