Children's Book Cover Reveal: The Amazing Mr Blunden

I’m excited to share the cover I created for the reissue of The Amazing Mr Blunden by Antonia Barber for Little, Brown UK. The book is being republished to coincide with the new Sky TV adaptation of the classic tale, to be written and directed by the wonderful Mark Gatiss this Christmas.

Children's middle grade book cover illustration of a gothic house and children looking in, with a tree, thorns and magical elements for The Amazing Mr Blunden by Antonia Barber

Working with the fantastic Charlotte Stroomer, middleweight designer at Little, Brown, I had a great time getting stuck into illustrating the gothic house setting and juxtaposing the Victorian children with the modern day kids.
