🪄 14 Days until #DoodleDay 🪄 As it’s #BackToHogwarts Day, we wanted to share Jason Cockcroft’s contribution to this years National Doodle Day fundraising auction, in aid of Epilepsy Action, as he is the original illustrator of the final three #HarryPotter books!
“A rip-roaring, adrenaline-filled recounting of the infamous Persian wars." The Daily Mail on @holland_tom & @littlyellow The Wolf-Girl, The Greeks & The Gods
Thanks #StephenFry for the fantastic review of #WolfGirl @holland_tom @littlyellow
Myth and history interwoven with haunting illustrations ... Great review for @holland_tom & @littlyellow & Wolf-Girl booklink.walker.co.uk/the-wolf-girl-…
The Wolf-girl, The Greeks And The Gods, published by @WalkerBooksUK . This little gif reveals the slipcover image I'm fond of. All designed by the brilliant @bengersfood
One of my favourite images from the new book published by @WalkerBooksUK and written by @holland_tom .... Here I'm stealing a lot from Kay Nielsen, borrowing from Dulac and generally using what I can to make the scene come alive. #wolfgirl
How great to see The Wolf-Girl, The Greeks & The Gods: A Tale of the Persian Wars picked as Children's Book of the Week in @thetimes ("A triumph.") & reviewed in The Sunday Times this weekend!
"Vengeful gods and valour abound in this vibrant illustrated re-telling of the Persian Wars ... A great gift for myth-obsessed readers." Thanks @lovereadingkids 🐺 shorturl.at/CQVZ5 @holland_tom @littlyellow
And here is the slipcase artwork for A Song Of Sun And Sky, published by Godwin Books at @HenryHolt. #newbook #ChildrensBooks #picturebooks
I'll be sharing some artwork from the book in the coming weeks, but meanwhile here's one of my favourite images. Thanks again to @aramkimart, Melisa Vuong, Kortney Nash and Laura Godwin. #artwork #bookbirthday #bookrelease #ChildrensBooks #georgiaokeeffe
I've just realised that my new book with @aramkimart and the lovely team at @HenryHolt is released this week in the US. It's called A Song Of Sun And Sky, and is a tribute to the extraordinary Georgia O'Keeffe.
Here's the last one for today ...Gorgo of Sparta, the protagonist of @holland_tom 's The Wolf-girl, The Greeks And The Gods, published by @WalkerBooksUK
The illustrations were drawn on paper, scanned, and then coloured digitally, using painted textures and other washes I've made and collected over the years. @WalkerBooksUK @holland_tom #wolfgirlthegreeksandthegods
This was a particular favourite to illustrate. As you'll see, throughout the book, I took inspiration from greek vase art and decorations, and added some stars and thunder.
Maybe you can try to identify the various gods ....
The Wolf-Girl, The Greeks and the Gods by @holland_tom and published by @WalkerBooksUK will be out on the 4th of May. Here are a few of my favourite images so far.
#ToTheOtherSide by @ErikaDraws is a beautiful picture book following two siblings as they travel the long & difficult road to a place of safety. But first they have to avoid the monsters & NEVER get caught. Good for starting conversations about conflict & war.
As some of you will know, I recently made a book with @WalkerBooksUK, written by @holland_tom and designed by the lovely @bengersfood.
Today is #TransDayOfVisibility 🏳️⚧️ Today, and every day, we celebrate and stand with trans people around the world, who often face discrimination and hostility. Trans rights are human rights. To all of our trans friends, family, partners, supporters, we appreciate you!

And then there’s A Song of Sun And Sky, where in top of the wondrous visuals you get the lyrical, masterful text adding meaning upon meaning to the poetic images on the page. Truly, there is no way to imitate @littlyellow. Thank you for letting me hold these in my bookshelf!
Thrilled that this week sees the publication of my 1st book for children. It tells the story of the Persian invasion of Greece, & features gods, nymphs, girls turning into bears, boys turning into wolves, & the most gorgeous illustrations by @littlyellow booklink.walker.co.uk/the-wolf-girl-…
