Simone Allard

Author, artist and journalist, Simone Allard is one of Manitoba’s biggest butterfly enthusiasts. An author of five French-language children’s books, contributor to Youth News and Ducks Unlimited, and award-winning documentary director, Allard’s unique blend of talents combined with a fascination for Lepidoptery (the study of butterflies) have created the perfect storm. Manitoba Butterflies is her first book in English. She currently lives and writes in Winnipeg.
