More Description A wonderful collection of envelope art from some of today's best loved children's illustrators, celebrating the art of letter-writing. For over thirty years, lots of visitors to the publisher of Andersen Press, Klaus Flugge, have been delighted to see a large number of framed envelopes on the wall of his office. Klaus's longtime friend David McKee started things off many years ago with the first envelope; this was soon followed by more, which in turn inspired contributions from other artists including Satoshi Kitamura, Emma Chichester Clark and Fulvio Testa. The idea for a book of some of the more inspiring samples has now been realised.
This collection of 100 stunning and quirky envelopes draws together some of the greatest illustrators in the children's book industry: David McKee, Emma Chichester Clark, Tony Ross, Satoshi Kitamura, Posy Simmons, Chris Riddell, Axel Scheffler, Fulvio Testa, Susan Varley and Ralph Steadman.
