Tim All Alone by Edward Ardizzone

Tim All Alone by Edward Ardizzone

Tim arrives home after a long holiday only to find his parents have vanished. The courageous Tim is determined to search the whole wide world, if necessary, to find them. Many people offer to help, but sometimes their help is the last thing he needs! Tim's droll adventures are a never-ending source of delight, both fantastic yet utterly real, and are beautifully evoked in Edward Ardizzone's lyrical watercolor illustrations.

A very moving story with some desperately exciting illustrations

Edward Ardizzone was the eldest of five children. In 1905 his family moved to Ipswich, where he learnt to know and love the little coastal steamers that he was to draw so often in the Little Tim books. Illustrator of more than 170 much-loved children's books, Edward Ardizzone was awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal in 1956 and the CBE in 1971. He died in 1979.
