Grandson continues Madeline books

By ABC7
Ludwig Bemelmans is the creator of the Madeline books. His grandson, John Bemelmans Marciano, spent years learning to paint in the same style and come up with a new Madeline story that would do justice to his grandfather's legacy.

His latest book is Madeline and the Cats of Rome.
