'''''L'Histoire de Rayman''''' ('''''History of Rayman''''') is a French book written by Michael Guarné and published by [[Pix'n Love]].

Containing more than two hundred pages, it is the first book entirely focused on the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' franchise]], from its [[Rayman 1|birth]] to the release of ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. It was released in October 2014 in two different editions: the normal edition and the collector's edition, known in French as "Édition Origine". The latter, only limited to five hundred units, contains an alternative white cover with a ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'' sketch by [[Michel Ancel]] and an exclusive 48-page book, ''L'Histoire de Rayman: Les Artworks Oubliées'' (''The History of Rayman: Forgotten Artworks''), featuring never before seen ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' artworks.
