"John Burningham is a celebration of an extraordinary life in illustration. It traces the development of the artist from early childhood drawings and experiences through to the creative explosion of art school and beyond, bringing us to the publication of Johns's first book for children, Borka, the adventures of a goose, 1963. Borka, and the books that followed, have redefined their genre. The unforgettable characters and stories have entranced children all over the world for decades. Alongside the books for children are further treats - posters for London Transport, magazine covers and a lamp in the form of a tower block are just some of those featured here. Told in his own words, and featuring a foreword by Maurice Sendak and an introduction by the critic, Brian Alderson, John Burningham is an indispensible guide to one of the defining illustrators of our time"--Inside front cover
