“I’m the fastest mouse in the world!” Simona Ciraolo’s illustrations are loose, dynamic and direct, and Jake the mouse shows pure joy in his face as he scoffs at every creature he meets. But what is his fate?

Beautiful Certificates to reward ‘jobs well done’, ‘feuds expired’ or ‘bad habits quit’ from Varoom favourite, Marian Bantjes.

We are delighted to announce that submissions are now open for the Poster Prize for Illustration 2019, in partnership with London Transport Museum (LTM). This year the theme is London Stories…

The variety of compositions within the illustrations are key to the success of this story. Viewpoint, scale and colour are explored with each page turn as Peter explores his different worlds. Sís delicately explores the idea of friendship amongst children and how emotions can flip from joy to despair because of an unwanted remark.

Going To School follows Rose and all she gets up to throughout the course of her day at school, making it so fun that it feels like we should all go back for a few more lessons.

Illustrators develop a close connection with their materials. In Varoom 37 Poppy Chancellor, MaricorMaricar and Olimpia Zagnoli reveal what they love about papercutting, embroidery and experimenting with new materials.

Alongside Co-Founder Sam Arthur and Marketing Manager Zoë Aubugeau-Williams we reflect on a decade of prolific book publishing.

Members are the very backbone of this organisation and we are always looking to showcase and share illustrators more. We are delighted to showcase Robert Sae-Heng’s beautiful work online in this monthly feature.

We talk to the Fan Brothers about their latest book where trees are being curiously transformed overnight by persons unknown, to the delight of the town and the story’s main character, an orphan boy.
