Camille y los Girasoles, libro ilustrado a todo color por el propio autor, está basado en un episodio real de la vida del genial pintor Vincent Van Gogh. Algunas de las ilustraciones de este volumen -especialmente dirigido a niños que aman el arte o que disfrutan con una bonita historia- son reproducciones de las obras de este artista holandés. Camille y los Girasoles narra la amistad entre un pintor que nunca conoció la fama y un niño, Camille, al que el artista le demuestra cariño y agradecimiento retratándolo junto a toda su familia. Al lado de estos retratos, aparece el cuadro de los famosos girasoles, las flores que Camille le regaló al pintor, y que supuso una de las catorce obras pictóricas más importantes de la historia. Gracias a ella, y solo después de su muerte, el rechazo a Vincent Van Gogh -que durante su vida sólo vendió un cuadro y fue a su hermano- se convirtió en verdadera admiración.
