Award-winning author and illustrator VIN VOGEL started his career scribbling on the walls and books inside his parents’ apartment. Although he mainly works digitally, Vin always carries a mini notebook in his pocket to capture his thoughts and doodles. Vin has illustrated over fifty books for children and young adults in Portuguese, French and English. After living in Brooklyn for hears, he recently moved back to his hometown of Rio, where he lives with two cats and a dog. They are surrounded by many plants, piles of picture books, and some single fin surfboards. =Please visit Vin online at:
