Children's illustrators show heart


Some of the most celebrated names in children’s book illustration have specially donated artwork to help raise funds for children’s charity, the International Children’s Heart Foundation. The illustrators, including Cressida Cowell and Quentin Blake, gave artwork showing their best-loved characters. A private silent charity auction of the donated artwork will be held on 6 August, 5.30pm-7pm at the Illustration Cupboard in London to mark the publication of The BIG-Hearted Book by Nicholas Allan, published by Hodder Children’s Books.
