Description
"Quick! If you don’t move fast, you’ll miss him—there he goes—Randolph Caldecott, future famous illustrator. His sketchbook is full of hurly-burly: wild weather, frisky animals, and people so sprightly they can barely hold onto the pages. ,But in the 1850s, there were no children’s books like that. Not yet. any books are published, but their pictures look stiff, full of pretty poses and cluttered scenery. No one has imagined how much fun an illustrated book could be ... Because the future hero of children’s book illustration is still just a lad.",Publisher.
