"An illustrated childrens' book about a cute little Terrier called `Tilly', this is a story that is both charming and delightful (as Tilly herself is described). Across each page a poetic journey of spirited animal adventures and thoughts is weaved, making the book suitable for younger children (ages 3-6) and grown-up ones alike! Tilly the Terrier is both written and illustrated by Ben Simons."
Ben Simons is a 20-year-old illustration student at University for the Creative Arts in Farnham. He has a strong interest in illustrating childrens' books and designing fiction book covers. This is Ben's first book and he is very excited to start creating more. You can see some of his work at: www.bensimonsillustrator.wix.com/website
"Ben Simons' new children's book opens and closes with the line 'I am charming and delightful' and nothing could be more fitting. Simons has done an incredible job both writing and illustrating this sweet little book, detailing the random day-to-day thoughts of an adorable terrier. The accompanying text is rhythmic and gives meaning to the pictures, creating a short book that can be quite emotional (especially if you're a dog owner, or lover). A bedtime read, really, for the warm and friendly feel of the book, but one I can recommend for anytime because it is so worth the read! Congratulations to Ben Simons for an incredible debut. I can't wait for the next." -- Henry, Amazon UK
