Product Information
The John Burningham Collection opens with a foreword by US contemporary, Maurice Sendak, before John himself goes on to explore his childhood, his schooling at Summerhill, his beginnings as an illustrator designing posters for London Transport, and then his hugely successful and still-ongoing 35-year career as a picture book author and illustrator. We see developmental notes for his first picture book, Borka, sketches, and lavish colour illustrations from his backlist of over 40 books. Providing new insights into his work, this is an ideal gift for Burningham fans, and also anyone interested in illustration and children's books.Product Identifiers
