Dominique Jolin was born in Chibougamau, Quebec, Canada in 1964. She is the French Canadian author of Toopy and Binoo, a popular children's television show.

The Toupie et Binou books were originally published in English as Washington and Deecee, although the names Toopy and Binoo were retained for the television adaptation.

Both books are published by Dominique & Friends.
