Watch out for the Amazing Mr Zooty! He's always out and about and on the lookout for people to help. So when he meets the kind but poor Taylor family he decides to grant them each a wish. A zany, feel-good story about helping others less fortunate than yourself, and how that kindness is rewarded.
Amazing Mr Zooty! by Emma Chichester-clark
Emma Chichester Clark studied at the Chelsea School of Art and the Royal College of Art, where she was taught by Quentin Blake. She has worked as a freelance illustrator for various magazines including New Scientist, Cosmopolitan and The Sunday Times , and has also illustrated numerous book jackets.
In 1988 she won the Mother Goose Award for her first book, Listen to This !, an anthology compiled by Laura Cecil. She also won the Kate Greenaway medal in 1988. Since then, she has become internationally known, illustrating writers such as Roald Dahl, Peter Dickinson, Anne Fine and Margaret Mahy. Emma was the first winner of the newly created Grinzane Junior Award for I Love you, Blue Kangaroo.
Emma was born in London but raised in Ireland. She started drawing "just about as soon as I could hold a pencil. But I could never find enough paper and my mother wouldn't let me use her Basildon Bond. So secretly I used to tear the blank pages out of her grown-up books and draw on them and make my own little books."
