Selina Chönz, a celebrated Swiss author born in the Engadin valley, drew inspiration from her alpine homeland to craft enchanting stories that capture the essence of rural life and childhood wonder. Best known for her collaboration with illustrator Alois Carigiet on the timeless children's classic 'Une Cloche pour Ursli,' which vividly portrays a young boy's quest for a ceremonial cowbell in the Swiss mountains, Chönz's narratives blend folklore, nature, and gentle humor to resonate with readers of all ages. Her work has been translated into multiple languages, introducing global audiences to the magic of Engadin traditions and fostering a deep appreciation for cultural heritage through simple, heartfelt prose.
