In his new book, The world is yours, illustrated by Hélène Druvert and published by Editions Saltimbanque, at the turn of one of the pages, Susie Morgenstern addresses the youngest, and tells them this: “In all that the sky reveals, have you recognized your lucky star which watches over your luck and your fortune?
From now on, we know the name of her lucky star: the Salon du livre et de la presse jeunesse de Montreuil, in Seine-Saint-Denis, awarded Susie Morgenstern the 2024 Grande Ourse prize for all of his work. And here is how the author received this award.
“It’s a heartfelt prize, in fact, the Montreuil Book Fair is the only place where we are stars!”

Susie Morgenstern is truly a star of children's literature, and not only thanks to her heart-shaped glasses, which she has worn since the age of 14, to always see life in pink! An optimism that she likes to convey to young readers:
“This is always our mission in children's literature. That is to say, we can talk about everything, we can talk about war, famine, sadness, depression, illness, but while keeping the hand of the child We can talk about everything, but that's the way of speaking And then I'm rather optimistic, and I like to give hope to the child, and actually tell him that the world is. wonderful.”
