He went to Sidcup Grammar School, did National Service, studied English at Cambridge, attained a postgraduate teaching diploma from the University of London, and took life classes at Chelsea Art School. He taught for over twenty years at the Royal College of Art. Since the 90s, he’s worked as an exhibition curator in London and Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, Blake has been making his primary living as an illustrator since he was first published in \u003cem\u003ePunch \u003c\/em\u003emagazine at sixteen. He drew for them for many years, alongside \u003cem\u003eThe Spectator\u003c\/em\u003e and other magazines. His first children’s book was published in 1960 - \u003cem\u003eA Drink of Water\u003c\/em\u003e by John Yeoman. He’s illustrated books by many authors, including Sylvia Plath, Michael Rosen, and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.books2door.com\/collections\/dr-seuss\"\u003eDr. Seuss\u003c\/a\u003e, as well as many astonishing books written by himself.

Their collaboration started with the picture book \u003cem\u003eThe Enormous Crocodile\u003c\/em\u003e in 1979 and lasted even past Dahl’s death in 1990. Blake’s work perfectly complements Dahl’s spiky and fablelike tales, and all of the latest editions come fully furnished with Blake’s illustrations. This includes Dahl’s final 1991 novel \u003cem\u003eBilly and the Minpins\u003c\/em\u003e, which Blake illustrated in 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlake has won many prizes across his career, including the Hans Christian Anderson Award for Illustration. He has been knighted by the British, admitted to the Legion d’Honneur by the French, and has received multiple honorary degrees. He became the inaugural Children’s Laureate in 1999, a post created to raise the profile of children’s literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the page, Blake has decorated the walls of many hospitals and caregiving establishments with his art, from mental health support centres to maternity wards. He founded the House of Illustration, a centre that promotes the art of illustration, which Blake feels isn’t given the same amount of attention and respect as other types of visual art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBest-Known Books\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.books2door.com\/collections\/quentin-blake\/products\/roald-dahl-collection-16-book-box-set-ages-7-9-paperback\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Roald Dahl 16 Book Collection\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e is illustrated throughout by Quentin Blake.

Very occasionally the term non-fiction has to stretch itself to accommodate a book that fits into no category at all. Michael Rosen's Sad Book is such a book. It chronicles Michael's grief at the death of his son Eddie from meningitis at the age of 19. A moving combination of sincerity and simplicity, it acknowledges that sadness is not always avoidable or reasonable and perfects the art of making complicated feelings plain. It wasn't made like any other book either; Michael Rosen said of the text, \" I wrote it at a moment of extreme feeling and it went straight down onto the page ... Quentin didn't illustrate it, he 'realized' it. He turned the text into a book and as a result showed me back to myself. No writer could ask and get more than that.\" And Quentin Blake says that the picture of Michael \"being sad but trying to look happy\" is the most difficult drawing he's ever done... \"a moving experience.\"\u003cdiv class=\"goodreadr\" data-isbn=\"9781406317848\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Walker Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37523429818547,"sku":"9781406317848","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/6874\/1219\/products\/9781406317848.jpg?v=1633966636"},{"product_id":"9781406391329","title":"Flights of Fancy : Stories, pictures and inspiration from ten Children's Laureates","description":"Collecting together all ten former Children's Laureates, this beautiful gift anthology is now available in paperback.
