They never made it further than his typewriter (laptops hadn't yet been invented). Forty years later he decided it was time to try again, and a new pair of friends, Armadillo and Hare, came alive. He wanted these tales to be different from his usual comic style, and they are! Jeremy is the bestselling author of over 100, including \u003ci\u003eThe Hundred-Mile-an-Hour Dog\u003c\/i\u003e and My Brother's Famous Bottom series. \u003cbr\u003e After Graduating WITH a BA in Graphic Communication, Rebecca meandered pretty quickly into kids' publishing as an assistant designer... and just didn't leave. She is a freelance illustrator and part-time designer working in kids' publishing, currently based in Bath, England. Rebecca was awarded the Cheltenham Illustration Award in 2016 and has provided editorial illustrations for a number of publications, including Stew, Ithsmus, and Union Features as well as The London Museum.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"David Fickling Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50504332968210,"sku":"9781338540598","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_6d4332c8-17be-48ec-a5f6-16611e24243e.jpg?v=1730817035","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/armadillo-and-hare-tales-from-the-forest-9781338540598","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
