Graham has worked in children's books now for over 20 years and his claim to fame is co-creating and illustrating the award winning book character Anthony Ant. There are over ten published Anthony Ant books and a 26 episode animated TV series, which he helped to create.

Other books include The Wacky Book of Witches, The Fabulous Fairy Tale Follies, Where is Zak, (the tooth fairy) Where is Little Harry, (the baby pig) The Wind in the Willows, The Adventures of Pinocchio and his latest project illustrating Mark the Mountain Guide.

He has also illustrated for Lynne Reid Banks, (The Indian in the Cupboard)  Dianne Wynne Jones, Spike Milligan and Frank Muir, amongst others.

Educational books he has illustrated include:
"A Band of Dirty Pirates" written by Damien Harvey,
"Monster Cake" also by Damian Harvey,
"The Truth about those Billy Goats" retold by Karina Law,
"Hansel and Gretel" retold by Penny Dolan,
"Jack the Giant-Killer" retold by Malachy Doyle
and "The Emperor and the Nightingale" by Hans Christian Andersen

With all that experience, he is offering to you an interactive talk with lots and lots of drawing. He is more illustrator than author. He talks and demonstrates about the conception and development of a book character and it's transition from the idea, to the rough sketches, to the art work, to the book and.... to the TV.

His fee is always negotiable and dependent on the number of sessions per day, the number of children, the distance travelled and the funds available.

Four sessions per day to 1 to 2 classes per session, works very well for Graham. All he requires is a chair, a small side table, a flip chart with paper and some fat coloured markers.

He has performed at book events from Newcastle to Oxford and many schools in and around London.
