March 2010 Guest Editor Michael Foreman remembers:
When I was a little boy, the only books we had at home were Ration books. However, on my newspaper round I became a fan of the Rupert Bear comic strip in the Daily Express. At Christmas, Mum bought me the Rupert Annual, my very first book. I think Rupert has influenced me in the use of animals to tell a human story, it enables children everywhere to identify with the characters no matter what their cultural background might be.
