Chrysanthemum was caring because she didn't use to shout and talk rudely to anyone. When she was old enough to go to school, her friend used to tease her, but she did not do anything bad to her friends. She was never stubborn and always listened to her parents.

Fantasy doesn’t sell. Teenagers won’t buy books with pictures. This is what illustrator Chris Riddell and writer Paul Stewart were told in the 1990s. A million copies of the Edge chronicles later, they tell Ruth Prickett that their success rests on attention to detail – from architecture and economics to fashion and cartography In the beginning was a map. There aren’t many authors who would admit that their hugely successful series started with an illustration. But then there aren’t many partnerships that work like that of Chris Riddell and Paul Stewart, co-crea- tors of the phenomenally popular fantasy series the Edge chronicles. The story goes that in the mid-1990s Chris Rid- The dell, already a well-known children’s illustrator and newspaper cartoonist, came up with a map of the sur- real Edge world. He and Paul Stewart used this as the basis for their first collaboration, Beyond the Deep- woods. They showed it first to his publisher who was entertained, but dismissed it, telling them: “There’s no future in fantasy”. Stewart’s publisher, however, was more confident, and the Edge legends were born in 1998, the same year the second Harry Potter book was published, but before Harry Potter mania had every publisher reaching for his chequebook.

  • BEFORE YOU START Prepare a Group Journal to Help You Record Group Discussions and Responses to the Text As You Work Through the Book
    BEFORE YOU START Prepare a group journal to help you record group discussions and responses to the text as you work through the book. These notes refer to the edition illustrated by Chris Riddell but can also be used with Dave McKean’s original illustrations, with some minor adjustments. You could create a glossary of new vocabulary as you read the book – you may want to prepare a format for doing this. As you go through the book, ask the group to pick out words they are unfamiliar with or do not fully understand, such as velvet, muzzle, vermin, raggedy, embroidery, vivid, monstrous, anteroom, shovelled, commercials and rummaged. You could prepare photographs and video sources to bring these words to life and help the pupils use them in context. © Bloomsbury SESSION 1: CHAPTER 1 Focus: Predicting, Close Reading, Thinking Aloud and Summarising Share the front cover with the group. (Do not share the back cover at this point as it reveals some aspects of the plot you may wish to hold back while the children make predictions.) Ask the children to predict what the story could be about. Ask them to justify their responses, drawing out any connections they make to other stories. Record the children’s responses in the journal. Once you have recorded their predictions you can return to these as you read the book, comparing the children’s initial thoughts to how the story actually unfolds. –––––– © Bloomsbury Encourage the children to look in detail at the cover illustration and make connections between this text and other stories they know.

  • Lauren Child
    Lauren Child Author Program In-depth Interview Insights Beyond the Movie Lauren Child, interviewed in New York, New York on April 20, 2006 while on tour from England. TEACHINGBOOKS: Your first book for children, Clarice Bean, That’s Me began what’s become a very successful career in children’s books, including, among others, your Charlie and Lola series, which is now a Disney television show. Where did you get your start? LAUREN CHILD: Early on, I didn’t know what I wanted to do, but I definitely knew it would be something to do with drawing. I could never quite commit to one thing because I thought it would prevent me from doing something else that I really wanted to do. If I wanted to be a furniture designer, then that would mean I couldn’t be a textile designer or I couldn’t be an illustrator or I couldn’t have ideas for film or TV. I even had a lampshade-making business for a while, where a friend and I taught ourselves how to make lampshades and we found all these really interesting fabrics, and made limited edition lampshades. Somebody pointed out to me that a lot of what I was interested in was children focused. She said, “You’re very interested in children’s products, children’s TV, and children’s books, so maybe you should think about doing a children’s animation or something.” Then she said, “Why don’t you write a children’s book, because it can serve as a calling card; you could maybe talk to an animation company about your idea.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Muddle Earth (Muddle Earth #1-#3) by Paul Stewart Muddle Earth (Muddle Earth #1-#3) by Paul Stewart. TV TOONS animated series TOON MAKERS animation studios & people. COMICS characters, strips & comic books. TOON GODS British animators & illustrators. "Come to a world of great wonder and merriment, Borne out of magic, its' name Muddle Earth . " You'll find monsters and mayhem and more in this animated series based upon Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell's bestselling fantasy book. Muddle Earth is a twisted version of Tolkein's Middle Earth, from "Lord of the Rings", and it's inhabited by a host of daft wizards, trolls, faeries, dragons and characters that have become a staple of the High Fantasy genre. Thus we have Randalf the defuddled Wizard and his young asistant Newt, Horned Baron Smink and his Head Gardener-turned-Manservant Benson, a friendly troll-being known as Not-Very-Big Norbert (who really is quite big), and so on. Ruling over this daft domain is the evil blue teddy bear that is - gulp - Dr. Cuddles. The original book featured one singular story told in three parts, in keeping with its Tolkeinesque parody. It tells of an ordinary boy called Joe, who is summoned to Muddle Earth to become a warrior-hero, whereupon his adventures bring him into contact with the denizens of this magical realm. But this animated series dismisses Joe and his quest, and instead tells singular, standalone, Muddle Earth stories, usually with Randalf the Wizard, Newt and Norbert at the heart of them. Tim Harper and Vincent James (Philbert Frog ) were drafted in to direct, with Phil Chalk producing.
