My Kirkus Q&A with Joe Todd-Stanton
February 2nd, 2017 by jules
“The books I loved best when I was a kid were always very detailed, so I probably pick narratives that will lend themselves to that style. Pretty much every mythology is so rich in back story and characters that it’s a great thing to hang a story around, because it gives you an instant, vast visual language you can then place your character into.”
Today over Kirkus, I talk with British author-illustrator Joe Todd-Stanton about his debut children’s book, Arthur and the Golden Rope (Flying Eye Books, February 2017), volume one in the Brownstone’s Mythical Collection series.
That Q&A is here.
I’ll have even more art from the book here at 7-Imp next week.
Until tomorrow …
