Katerina Kerouli

Her work is both charming and quirky. The dog was inspired by the film Isle of Dogs, and the bats were just a bit of fun.
We have updated Katerina's website folio with other fabulous new images, to see more of Katerina's work please go to the website.

The Dinosaur That Pooped A Princess by Tom Fletcher and Dougie Poynter is the fifth title to be published this year featuring Garry Parsons' wonderful illustrations.
Garry has been particularly busy over the last few months; he's enjoyed creating artworks that have featured dragons, princesses, dinosaurs, fairies and out of this world adventures to name just a few! Never one to rest on his laurels, Garry has also enjoyed becoming a regular guest author on the much loved Picture Book Den.
We spoke to Garry about some of the titles he has worked on this year and why each book, although very different, means so much to him.
