About the author

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.

John Grant is a Scottish author and illustrator, possibly best known as the author of the Littlenose series of children's stories, which he read on the BBC's Jackanory in 55 programmes from 1968 to 1986.
As a student, Grant earned extra cash illustrating learned academic papers and designing menus, toast lists and illuminated addresses, and during National Service he drew cartoons for the official army magazine Soldier.
He originally invented Littlenose to entertain his children, but failed to find a publisher until BBC commissioned him to both write and present his stories of a little Neanderthal boy who was always getting into trouble. These proved a great success, and he went on to write and illustrate over 13 Littlenose books between 1968 and 1993.

My 6 year old really enjoyed this book being read to her at bedtime. Shes a huge he-man fan, and finding any he-man books is like gold dust. Hope we can find more soon.
