BRILLIANT
BRITS: SHAKESPEARE
SHORTLISTED FOR
BLUE
PETER AWARD 2004
NEW SERIES LAUNCHED 2003
I’m working hard
on this series. Each book is about a famous British person.
DAVID BECKHAM was
one of the first. Did you know he never argues with the referee because his
Gran can lip read?
She watches all his games on TV and tells him off if he she sees him say anything
she thinks is rude!

‘STORIES
FROM BRITISH HISTORY’
SHORTLISTED FOR BLUE PETER AWARD 2002
‘ Best New Book of Information’
If you saw the Blue Peter
Award programme on December 15th, you’ll know that the winner of The
Best New Book of Information was Ada Lovelace, the Computer Wizard of Victorian
England by Lucy Lethbridge.
But STORIES FROM BRITISH HISTORY, which I illustrated, is a brilliant series
written by Geraldine
McCaughrean who already has three Blue Peter Awards, including Overall
Winner last year. Geraldine has also won the Whitbread, Carnegie, UKRA, Smarties,
Beefeater Awards and countless other awards. I already felt as if I’d
won a prize when I was asked to do the illustrations for some of her books
so I wasn’t too disappointed!
