A tender book full of humour, which manages to reassure every child.
– The Guardian
"...Every book by the illustrator and author of Tick and Tella serves as a tool for children, particularly those under 5, as it helps them understand and be introduced to concepts such as apologising, friendship, support and teamwork!"
– Suzanna Papafagou, TalkAxel Scheffler
Axel Scheffler was born in Hamburg, Germany. Although he was good at drawing, he had never imagined a career in illustration until he won a purple stuffed cow in a drawing competition.
In 1982, he moved to England to learn English and study illustration. He has illustrated many books, and in 1993 he began collaborating with the famous children’s author, Julia Dolantson.
Their book *The Gruffalo* became a global success and was adapted into a television cartoon in 2009.
His books have been translated into 42 languages. He lives in London and has a young daughter.
