Synopsis

In this text, Quentin Blake picks some of his favourite paintings and encourages everyone to look for the stories they tell. The author has chosen 26 paintings and drawings, all with stories in mind. The pictures are by very different artists: some are illustrators of children's books from across the world; others are by artists whose pictures are usually seen in art galleries. Quentin Blake's characters draw the reader in by introducing every image, pointing out details and asking question, allowing their imagination to create stories around the pictures.
