In this enchanting picture book, best-selling and multi-award-winning author and illustrator Jackie Morris conjures a world where everyone has their own dragon, exploring all of their variety through lyrical text and beautifully realised illustrations. From a dragon as large as a village to a tiny dragon with whisper-thin wings, and from a snaggle-toothed dragon to a sea-dragon which races dolphins on the waves, Tell Me a Dragon is a delight for young readers to enjoy and a treat for the imagination.
This enlarged and high-quality production edition allows the quality and intricacy of Jackie’s artwork to take precedence on the page, bringing the title back into print for readers to experience like never before.
The reputation of Jackie’s work has continued to grow following the success of The Lost Words (Hamish Hamilton), written by Robert Macfarlane, the Sunday Times bestseller, Hay Festival Book of the Year and joint winner of the British Book Awards Children’s Book of the Year. Jackie was also the recipient of this year’s Hay Festival Medal for Illustration.
In celebration of this, Graffeg have also released a series of large wall posters reproducing the cover art from some of Jackie’s classic children’s books, including Tell Me a Dragon, The Ice Bear, and The Snow Leopard, all with enlarged editions from Graffeg, as well as a Tell Me a Dragon postcard pack, with ten illustrations selected to appreciate, send and share alongside this beauti- ful new edition of the title.
Published by Graffeg on June 21, Tell Me a Dragon is hardback, 40 pages, and is priced £17.99.
