Through the Animals' Eyes by Christopher Wormell

Christopher Wormell's compelling and colourful artwork has won him admirers amongst children and adults alike. His first book for children, "An Alphabet of Animals", started as a series of simple and colourful lino-cut illustrations for his son, and eventually grew into a book that took the prestigious Graphics Prize at the Bologna International Children's Book Fair in 1991. "The New Alphabet of Animals", published by Running Press in 2002, won critical acclaim for the sheer force of its artistry.
"Top of my pile, as he was last year, is Christopher Wormell, whose Mice, Morals, & Monkey Business features 21 of Aesop's finest fablesWormell has two advantages over the competition: first, his woodcuts are sublime; second, he knows how to design a book to please every age group. Independent on Sunday "(Teeth Tails and Tentacles) is divine... the temptation will be to frame his dynamic images of animals for yourself." The Times Book Review "The New Alphabet of Animals is simply magnificent. A very satisfying strength lies throughout this book." Times Educational Supplement"
Christopher Wormell is a leading wood engraver as well as an illustrator.
