Michel Gagne was born in Québec, Canada, in 1965. He studied animation at Sheridan College School of Visual Arts in Ontario, Canada.

In 1985, he began a highly successful career drawing characters and special effects for animated and live-action feature films. His 3 ½ minute independent short film Prelude to Eden is a favorite among animation students and teachers and has played in festivals throughout the world. Michel was honored by the International Animated Film Society, ASIFA Hollywood, with four Annie Award nominations. He continues to design and consult on major motion pictures.

In addition to his film work, Michel is a dedicated fine artist who sculpts, paints and creates mixed media works.

This guy never ceases to amaze me. I gave this book to all my friends for Christmas, and everyone loved it. It's wacky, surreal, funny and imaginative. The perfect coffee table book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Cute kids book, December 8, 2003

By A Customer

Although the layout and drawing skills of the artist are sub-par, this book will amuse your children (although it's for 6 and under). What it lacks in imagination, it makes up for in a childs interest in monsters. Cute for a quick read, but not one for the library.
