The Wolf-Girl, The Greeks And The Gods received many accolades, and much of the success of the book as an object is down to the talent and vision of its designer, Ben Norland. I’ve illustrated many books in my career, and worked with many, many designers, and I can say very honestly, and with great gratitude, that Ben has been both the most talented and the easiest to work with. The work of editors and designers invariably goes unrecognised and uncredited outside of the small world of publishing, but they are essential in producing any work of quality, and the best of them have contributed hugely to many an author and illustrator’s success, including my own.
