String Prints
Selling Like Hot Dogs!

I seem to have had a sudden rush on Sausage Dog Print sales - thanks everyone who has ordered! I am always intrigued to know where Hubert and the gang find a home.

In Good Company

I have long been a fan of John Burningham, Anthony Browne, Quention Blake and Debi Gliori so I was very proud to find that 2 of my books Knight Time and Mummy Did You Miss Me? have been included along side theirs in 'A Collection of Modern Classics'. It is a box set of ten miniature books now available in Marks and Spencer.

Pierre is off to Italy!

After having had several requests recently from lovely folks outside the UK wanting to purchase String Prints I have now decided to go international (almost!) I am currently dispatching to Europe. Pierre left for Napoli yesterday-Lucky Pierre!

Inspiration
Galt School Puzzle



I love old wooden puzzles especially the Galt ones. I was trying to stop buying them as I don't really have space to display them but my other half picked this one up at a charity shop yesterday-so that's ok! I love that it is such a  sensible subject and also the way the wood is used within the image. The houses in the background look very much like our home.
