Perhaps it was inevitable that Magnus Weightman (Sunderland, United Kingdom, 1974) would one day illustrate his own children's book. Drawing has been a passion since his childhood and it was also the reason he chose to become an architect and urban designer. Becoming a father inspired him to bring his love for drawing, architecture, nature and travel together in the form of picture books. From his English/Norwegian roots Magnus has now made his family home in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
