My Search-and-Find Book: In the Mountains

Content

In this search-and-find classic, Ali Mitgutsch lets his lovable characters tell many great stories entirely without words: what happens in the mountain pastures in summer and winter. What a dam construction site looks like and which vehicles are in use. The daring mountaineers on the rock face inspire marvel and the hustle and bustle around the mountain lake invites you to take a closer look. Detailed and with his customary humour, Ali Mitgutsch shows children of all ages everything there is to discover in the mountains.

The Illustrator

Ali Mitgutsch was born in 1935 in Munich. During the course of a very tedious lithography internship he decided to become a freelance graphic artist. He did then, in fact, study graphic arts and make his dream reality. Mitgutsch is married and has three children, and divides his time between the town of Schwabing and an old farmhouse in Bavaria. He draws inspiration for his illustrations from his extensive international travels. In 2003 he was awarded the prestigious Schwabinger Kunstpreis (Swabian Art Prize).
