John Wallace’s formal training was not in illustration, but rather theology, which he received at Cambridge University. However, he always loved drawing, and one of his early jobs was as a newspaper cartoonist. In his children’s books illustrations, John is particularly inspired by what he calls “the gooniness” of young school children. John and his family divide their time between Brighton, England, and Long Island, New York.
From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2–Bauer uses simple sentences and repeated words and phrases to help beginning readers learn about how the Grand Canyon got so grand. A quick introduction to the geology and formation of this natural wonder is followed by a look at what people can do and see while visiting the area. Additional facts are appended. Wallace's watercolor-and-pencil cartoon illustrations are warm and inviting, showing children exploring and enjoying the region. Like the text, the pictures and diagrams convey information without getting too specific or detailed, helping youngsters to understand rudimentary geological concepts. This title will be popular with newly confident readers interested in the Grand Canyon and with families planning summer travel.–Susan E. Murray, Glendale Public Library, AZ
