Take a ringside seat for this glorious romp from master illustartor Quentin Blake
Roll up, roll up for the Fabulous Foskett Family Circus! There's Milly and Willy who perform with young Fred, who does a back flip and lands on his head. Uncle Phoenix Foskett who blows smoke rings, Jess and Bess with their conjuring tricks, not to mention singing dogs and birds and performing parrots. Quentin Blake originally created the eccentric and multi-talented Foskett family to decorate a hospital ward. Combined here with a specially commissioned text by John Yeoman, they now star in their own glorious book, which will be enjoyed and treasured by readers of all ages.

Quentin Blake is a children's author and illustrator who was appointed the first UK Children's Laureate in 1999. He is best known for his illustrations of Roald Dahl’s novels, and his previous works include The Bear's Water Picnic, The Heron and the Crane, Mister Magnolia, and Ten Frogs.
JOHN YEOMAN was for many years Head of English at the French Lycée in London. His collaboration with Quentin Blake began in 1960, and has resulted in a long list of successful children’s books of which a number of earlier well-loved titles are now being republished by Andersen Press for new generations of readers.
QUENTIN BLAKE has been drawing ever since he can remember. He taught illustration for over twenty years at the Royal College of Art, of which he is an honorary professor. He has won many prizes, including the Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration, the Eleanor Farjeon Award and the Kate Greenaway Medal, and in 1999 he was appointed the first Children'’s Laureate. In the 2013 New Year’'s Honours List he was knighted for services to illustration.
