This is Michael Foreman...
And here is some of his work...
Above published in 1961 The General was Michael Foreman's first illustrated book. Below just a sampling of his prolific output since those early days. To date he has 300 books to his name.
He is one of Britain's most successful, lauded and loved children's book illustrators. Since the publication of his first book in 1961 he has had over 300 titles, for both adults and children, published. I recently made an RDInsights recording with him. Born in 1938 in rural Suffolk during the second world war his creative journey is fascinating and surprising. To hear it click here. Enjoy.
