About the Author

Hans de Beer was born in Muiden, near Amsterdam, Holland. After briefly studying history, he finished his studies at the Rietveld Art Academy in Amsterdam. Little Polar Bear, Hansโ€™s art school graduation project, brought him worldwide success and countless awards, and has been translated into thirty languages so far.
