Description: "This is the fascinating insight into the artistic development of one of the world's most distinguished illustrators, from the start of his career until 2000. The words describe his approach to the challenges and opportunities of illustration; the pictures, chosen from fifty years of publication, show the progress from his first experience of Punch magazine to the publishing of his own-authored picture books such as Fantastic Daisy Artichoke. Some are familiar, such as those of Roald Dahl's Matilda, or The BFG, while others are from early in his career, and some - roughs, layouts and personal drawings - will be completely new to most readers." -- Back cover.
