Halibut Jackson – the award-winning debut by author and illustrator David Lucas. David is also the creator of beautiful children’s books like Grendel, The Robot and the Bluebird and The Wonderbird.
Instant classic – a phrase used, and abused, by publisher’s publicists – for once really does spring to mind.
— Financial Times
One of the year’s most likeable picture book debuts… beautiful, detailed, light-hearted street scenes.
— Sunday Times
The search for Halibut in David Lucas’ witty and original illustrations is delightfully satisfying.
