Fred Blunt is an award-winning author and illustrator. Humour has always been top of Fred's list when it comes to drawing. Right from those early (rather unflattering) portraits of teachers, Fred knew he wanted to entertain with his work. As well as writing and illustrating his own very silly picture books, Fred has collaborated with some of the best authors of the moment and also works in animation as a character designer. Fred lives in West Wales, with his wife, two children and their retired Greyhound, Olive.
