A fascinating account of Quentin Blake’s two years as the first children’s Poet Laureate. Charting Quentin Blake’s experience as the first ever Children’s Laureate, this book explores what the author perceived his new job to entail, and also takes us through the many other books, illustrations and projects that he undertook during this time. It is a fascinating insight into not only this most significant of roles, but also into the work of one of our best-loved author/illustrators.
