Owen Davey's first book, Foxly's Feast, was Highly Commended by the Macmillan Children's Book prize. His second title, the bedtime book Night Knight, was praised in The New York Times as, "Simple, sweet, and bound to induce sleep." He lives in England.
[A] highly stylized gathering of strong color and shadow, loopy
lines and angles, and for much of the book, the illustrations speak
for themselves. ... Superior artwork.
--Kirkus Reviews This ... mash-up of history and fantasy comes
attractively tricked out in a deftly composed homage to Soviet
visual art design.
--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books A sweet fact-fiction
mix of a picture book.
--Booklist The highly stylized blue, gold, and black digital art
features bold shapes and perspectives and suggests a sense of
Soviet propaganda posters of the era and the drama of space flight.
... [T]he art has a tour de force sweep.
--School Library Journal
