Tony Ross (Illustrator)
Tony Ross has been illustrating books for 50 years, and has been
published all over the world. He is perhaps best known for his
much-loved Little Princess series, which has been adapted for TV
and is currently showing on Channel 5's Milkshake, and for his
collaboration on David Walliams’ best-selling children’s books.
Tony’s books have been shortlisted for the The Laugh Out Loud Book
Awards (Slug Needs a Hug) and the Kate Greenaway (Dr Xargle's Book
of Earth Tiggers), and Tadpole’s Promise won the Silver Medal
Smarties Prize. He was named as the best-selling illustrator in the
UK for three years in a row, and he is the UK’s libraries'
most-borrowed illustrator. He lives in Macclesfield.
"These stories are perfect for newly confident readers who will
completely get the fact that they know more than Eric about what’s
going on, and will find so much to make them laugh too."
