Edward Ardizzone, one of England's most beloved artists and illustrators, was also an artist who could never resist the temptation of filling his letters to family and friends with enchanting vignettes and sketches. Like all of his work, these were done quickly, humorously, and lovingly, with a sure touch for outline, wash, and color that always distinguished his work. For the first time, here is a selection of those letters, envelopes, and illustrations, selected and edited by Judy Taylor, longtime children's book editor at the Bodley Head and among Ardizzone's closest friends and correspondents.
