Author Biography
David is the creator of several well-known characters including King Rollo and Mr Benn. His most famous creation is Elmer the Patchwork Elephant which is now published in more than 40 languages and has its own successful global merchandise programme. David McKee was born in Devon and went to Plymouth Art College, where he had a traditional training. On leaving college he drew regularly for, among others, Punch, Reader's Digest, and The Times Educational Supplement. His drawings were influenced especially by Saul Steinberg and Andre Francois. David's first picture book was one of the stories he had told at college, Two Can Toucan. This was published by Abelard-Schuman in 1964 and the version David re-illustrated in 1985 was re-issued in 2001 by Andersen Press. David has written and illustrated over 50 picture books for Andersen Press including 24 original Elmer stories. David lives in Arles, France

Described as very good condition, item received was in very poor condition. Message to seller was ignored and after initiating a return, I was offered 50% refund. Previous purchases from this seller have been positive, and I thought they would be concerned about such an unsatisfactory delivery. I was wrong and their shabby offer of making unacceptable goods half price was an insult. Fortunately ebay’s money back guarantee served justice. Unfortunately for me World of Books has lost its ingrity

I received my item from overseas and the DVD had a split in it, from being sent in a cardboard post pack with no padding. I contacted the seller but no response so far. So not happy

  • The Hill and the Rock is a stone cold classic!

    Quirky, funny, beautifully illustrated. A wonderful tale of making the best of a bad situation. One of my childhood favourites that's stayed in my mind all these years. Great to read to the kids!!!!
