Cover Story
On the front of BfK this month is the cover of On Christmas Eve by Peter Collington - see his accompanying piece in this issue. The book was published by Heinemann (the paperback version is now available) and the animated film will be shown on TV at Christmas - all details are given at the foot of Peter Collington's delightful double-page spread. We thank Heinemann for their help in using this illustration.
Roaring Billy
A must as a present for any older brother or sister of a baby. Normally Billy is a delight, but one day he wakes up roaring and no matter what they try nobody in the family can make him feel better. It's only when he smiles on the following morning that the mystery is solved. Dee Shulman's zany style perfectly illustrates the family disintegrating into desperation as the day wears on to the accompaniment of roars from Roaring Billy.
