Author. Illustrator. Children’s Laureate. Funny genius. Is there anything Chris Riddell can’t do? Give him a pen and a box of paints and he’ll knock out an instant masterpiece. (In fact, we suspect he could create a masterpiece scribbling in the dust with a stick.) He might be best-known for his illustration work with brilliant writer Neil Gaiman. And yes, you’ll totally find Coraline and Carnegie Medal winner The Graveyard Book in here. But Chris is just as comfortable writing his own spooky tales of humour and Gothic darkness. Haunted mansions, scary monsters and bizarre crimes: if you like those things, you’ll find plenty here!
