Dave Shelton - illustrator

Got the proofs for Sophie and the Albino Camel (8+) today, so at last I know who is illustrating it. Dave Shelton (whose website Daveshelton.com is definitely worth a visit) "lives in a flat above the Co-Op in Cambridge (UK not Massachusetts) where he draws and colours in for a living. Like most illustrators he drinks too much tea, eats too many biscuits and listens to a lot of Radio 4."

You can also have a look at Dave Shelton's blog, which includes lots of his pictures and occasional wonderful extracts from his sketchbook. In the blog there are occasional references to days of camel-drawing work, for which I am extremely grateful.
