I have to go with Maurice Sendak, for the Little Bear series.
Wonderful favorite, Little Bear! He’s a great illustrator, Maurice Sendak.
John Tenniel was also a well-known political cartoonist, most famous for his cartoon Dropping the Pilot.
I’d add E. H. Shepard, the original illustrator of Winnie the Pooh.
Thanks, Daniel. I added E. H. Shepard. I didn’t know John Tenniel was well-known for political cartoons, too.
Thanks for a lot of names I didn’t know.
It is unfair – I often remember the author but rarely the illustrators. I feel guilty. Have to start paying attention tomorrow
Ellie, just use Google. I couldn’t remember some of the illustrators; I just Googled the name of the book with the word “illustrator.”
I have such a special place for the Winnie-the-Pooh books as they were a warm fuzzy place to retreat to in a very challenging childhood…
