John Butler has loved drawing ever since he could pick up a pencil. To date he has illustrated over 60 children’s books published in more than 20 countries. He has won numerous awards both in the UK and the US. In 2015 one of his titles was made a gold medal selection for Dolly Parton’s charity, Imagination Library, in the UK. Back in 1995 he received a BP conservation award from Sir David Attenborough.
In a varied career he has worked for such illustrious clients as Sesame Street and Time magazine, but illustrating children’s books is what he enjoys doing most. Now with six young grandchildren to help inspire his illustrations, he feels very lucky to have a made a career out of picking up a pencil.
