Claude Ponti is a prolific author, painter, and illustrator, known for his humorous explorations of the nonsense world of dreams. His first picture book, Adele's Album, was created to amuse his young daughter; he has since authored more than sixty children's books. Ponti currently divides his time between the French countryside (where there are many birds, such as pheasants) and Paris (where there are pigeons).

Reviews for Adele in Sand Land: TOON Level 1

-Readers, particularly the newly independent ones at whom this is aimed, will delightedly join the outing.- - Kirkus Reviews STARRED REVIEW -Every two-page spread in this book is a gem...The images are filled with details, making this a great book for an adult and child to read together, pointing things out as they go, or alone, all the better to pore over the pages and take in every detail.- - School Library Journal's Good Comics for Kids -This delightful 38-page small hardcover picture book for kindergarten to first-grade readers is reminiscent of Winsor McCay's highly-detailed Little Nemo in Slumberland.- - AmoXcalli: Fred Patten Reviews
