He’ll be sharing his favourite books, introducing you to brand new ones and showing you how to draw lots of exciting characters and create your own ones too! There’ll be lots of tips and games along the way.

Nick has illustrated around 300 books including the much-loved ‘You Choose’, ‘Shark in the Park’ and ‘Pants’ series.

He’s worked with authors including Julia Donaldson, Michael Rosen and Kes Gray, and he’s illustrated lots of Dame Jacqueline Wilson’s phenomenally popular children’s novels. Nick’s also been awarded a gold Blue Peter badge!
