It's been miserable late January weather today, so here's something from warmer places and times - 'Hawaiian Big Daddy' was a book tie-up between JAL and Nikkei BPsha, copies were presented free to children flying from Japan to Honolulu to read on the flight. #kidlitart #japan #hawaii #kidlitUK

A friend has asked me what is a good brand for pens that you can draw with for her teenage daughter who enjoys drawing. I work entirely digitally so I only know the brands I used to use a million years ago. Anyone have any recommendations that I can pass on?? #kidlitart #illustration

Just saw a nice post on Insta from @waterstoneskids.bsky.social, with #MichaelMorpurgo talking about his new book, Cobweb - which I'm using as an excuse for blatant self-promotion! I've been very fortunate to illustrate several new covers for the recent re-release of his back-catalogue. #kidlitart
