Nico Cossou is an author, illustrator, and web developer born in Guyana. He developed a love for drawing at a young age and later moved to the U.S. to pursue careers in art and writing. As an author, he is dedicated to creating imaginative and thought-provoking stories for children, blending elements of mystery, adventure, and perception-based puzzles to encourage curiosity and exploration. His debut series, "The Midsummer Prophecy," exemplifies this approach, offering a multi-book journey through surreal environments where perception shapes reality. In addition to his writing, Cossou is the founder and CEO of CossouDev, a web development company providing services like web design, UX research, and video editing. You can find some of his illustrations on Saatchi Art.
