The remarkable authors who have created some of the most beloved books in the country, ranging from "The Gruffalo" to "The BFG," "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" to the "Charlie and Lola" series, are the ideal representatives of children's literature. This magnificent gift anthology celebrates the Laureateship's remarkable twenty-year journey, featuring stories, poems, and illustrations by all ten former laureates. Among them, Quentin Blake shares the stories behind his captivating illustrations of peculiar and extraordinary beasts, Michael Morpurgo draws inspiration from his childhood experiences for a poignant wartime tale, and Michael Rosen explores language and shapes in his witty and engaging poems that are perfect for reading aloud. Each contribution is intended to inspire children to create their own works, accompanied by a note from the authors, offering rare insights into the world of children's books. Above all, "Flights of Fancy" celebrates the Laureateship's most significant accomplishment: fostering children's imagination and encouraging them to soar to new heights.
