Soon after she left college,Jonathan Cape published her first illustrated children's book,Nicola Bayley 'Book of Nursery Rhymes',which was outstandingly successful and was followed a year later by 'Tyger Voyage' - see my book ID's rja424112,rja424212 (miniature 1st edns/books) and rja424412,rja424512 for true UK,1st edns; both books were translated into seven languages. he fantasy world that she paints is secure and tranquil and full of carefully worked detail.Her jewel-like colours are sometimes applied with a distinctive stippling technique to produce a varied texture.She is particularly well-known for her pictures of cats and her most popular books include 'The Patchwork Cat' (see my book ID rja28608) and,for Walker Books,the series 'Copycats'. She is also the illustrator of 'Merry-Go-Rhymes' and 'Bedtime and Moonshine' (both Walker Books). Want some more Nicola BAYLEY illustrated books/titles?
