February 2012
Our author of the month is Tony Ross. Tony Ross was born in 1938. He trained at Liverpool art school and went on to work in advertising and then as a teacher. He is probably best known for illustrating the Horrid Henry series of books for primary school children. However, he has also been hugely successful as an author and illustrator of picture books. The Little Princess series has charmed parents and children alike since 1986. the first story - I Want My Potty - won the Dutch Silver Pencil Award and the board book version has sold over 40,000 copies in the United Kingdon alone.
Here are just a few of our favourites. Why not borrow one from your library today?
- I Want My Potty
- The Three Sillies
- Naughty Nigel
- Don't Do That
- We're Going to a Party
- I don't Want to Go to Bed
