Axel Scheffler
639 books190 followersAxel was born in Hamburg, Germany. At school he was good at art, but didn’t think of a career in illustration until he won a cuddly purple cow in a drawing competition.
He moved to England in 1982 to learn English and study illustration at the Bath Academy of Art and then set up home in London. Axel illustrated a number of books for various publishers, and in 1993 Kate suggested him as the illustrator for Julia Donaldson’s first picture book text, A Squash and a Squeeze. This was the start of a hugely successful partnership: their bestselling modern classic, The Gruffalo, has sold over three-and-a-half million copies worldwide, and the TV animation was broadcast on Christmas day 2009.
Axel has illustrated a number of other highly successful books, including Muddle Farm, and his books have been translated into 42 languages.
Axel lives in London with his partner and young daughter.

Lizzie the Lamb loves having fun when she runs through the fields and skips in the sun. She gets splashed when she plays with the geese so she has to shake off her fleece to dry out.
She also has fun chasing the bunnies but although she hops reasonably well, they run too fast for her to catch them.
Her favourite game though is to jump high in the sky and Axel Scheffler captures her in his superb illustrations being watched by a couple of blackbirds.
But whatever Lizzie does, she can always be heard bleating loud, 'Baa, baa! Baa, baa!'
