"The text calls for dramatic reading and will surely appeal to storytime groups or lap readings. The pictures are very funny. This fits well into the pantheon of scary stories for younger children." -- "Kirkus Reviews" From "Writeaway" Big Brave Brian Present any child under the age of 9 a choice of new books to read, let them judge by the cover alone, and it is a sure bet that they would pick M. P. Robertson's Crocodile Hunter-esque hero standing smiling in the mouth of a bemused dragon. This first image, and the bouncy alliterative title suggests that the readers are in for an enjoyable quirky ride. And they are.
M. P. Robertson was born in Parsons Green, London. He studied Graphic Design at Hounslow Borough College, where he discovered a love for illustrated books. After leaving Hounslow he spent a year drawing in museums, cathedrals and on the underground before specialising in illustration at Kingston Polytechnic. Among the influences on his style are Mervyn Peake, Heath Robinson and Odile Redon. He believes that more than merely decorating a book, illustration should be integral to the narrative. Among is books for Frances Lincoln are The Egg, The Great Dragon Rescue and The Dragon Snatcher; Hieronymus Betts and his Unusual Pets, Big Brave Brian, The Sandcastle and Food Chain. He lives in Bradford on Avon with his partner and two sons.
