David McKee (1935 - 2022) was the creator of well-known characters including King Rollo, Mr Benn and Elmer the Patchwork Elephant, which is now published in more than 60 languages and has its own successful global merchandise programme. David was born in Devon and went to Plymouth Art College, where he had a traditional training. On leaving college he drew regularly for Punch, Reader’s Digest, and The Times Educational Supplement. His drawings were influenced especially by Saul Steinberg and Andre Francois. In 2020, David won the British Book Awards Illustrator of the Year Award and BookTrust’s Lifetime Achievement Award."David McKee's elephants are as delightful and full as character as ever,"
- Julia Eccleshare, LoveReading4Kids
"In his gentle way, David McKee reminds us of the grandeur of elephants and that we should never fail to treat them – and all animals - with the highest regard."
