Chris Riddell
Travels with My Sketchbook
After two years traveling Great Britain, visiting schools, libraries and festivals, and meeting thousands of children, Chris Riddell shares a glimpse of the incredible journey he has been on during his time as Children's Laureate. Full of sketches, doodles, and pages from The Laureate Log—his daily record of his time as Laureate—this book includes train doodles; key events and prizes in the world of children’s books; early sketches (including handwritten manuscripts and cover roughs) from the books he has worked on during his time as Laureate, including Goth Girl and the Wuthering Fright and The Hunting of the Snark; political sketches or roughs for the Observer cartoon, reminding readers of the major events that have punctuated his time as Laureate; and birthday sketches, impromptu portraits, posters, Christmas cards, sketches for poems, and song lyrics. With its cloth quarter binding, ribbon marker, and beautiful end papers, this truly is a book to treasure.
