Clouds Overhead, Sand Underfoot

Henrique Coser Moreira

Two siblings on an empty beach. They’re the only ones to stay, in spite of the rain and the wind. They wander about, they follow some birds, they run here and there. Around them, shells, stones, clouds, fish and pearls. They’re so lovely and enchanting they seem almost magical…

Henrique Coser Moreira was born in the city of Curitiba, Brazil, in 1998. As a child, he was very shy, quiet, and observant, and used to spend his days drawing in the margins of books, notebooks, or on his desk. Today he is an illustrator and graphic designer. His debut book, The First Day, won the 4th Serpa International Prize for Picturebooks, was selected for the 57th Illustrators Exhibition at Bologna Children’s Book Fair, and received a Special Mention for the Bologna Ragazzi Award (BRAW) in the “Comics – Early Reader” category.
