Registering new discoveries: The quirky Oliver Jeffers




It's on my ever growing book wish list: Oliver Jeffers books. He wrote things like 'The incredible book eating boy' (where the above illustration was taken from), 'Lost and Found', 'How to catch a star', ' The way back home'.
And he's funny, and has a huge, theatrical moustache. If you type up ' Oliver Jeffers ' ('course, that's his name) in YouTube, you'll find some footage of him in his studio, published by Penguin Young Readers. Cool stuff. It's lovely to hear him talk, too, because he comes from Northern Ireland. Go meet him.
