About this deal

In 2020 he broke the Guinness World Record for the largest ever online art class when 45,611 people tuned in to his live #DrawWithRob YouTube class. Before he became a full-time author/illustrator Rob was the art director of the Observer Magazine, NME, Uncut, SKY and Just Seventeen. From the stuff that her father left behind for her, Peanut discovers a pencil. A pencil, which produces “living, breathing drawings” — including a door she draws which becomes a portal to Chroma, the illustrated city. A beautiful piece of art that will have you gasping for more and grabbing your pens to let your imagination and creativity go wild as this is surely what was intended.

Catégorisation: Roman Fantasy ( Basse) anglais, littérature jeunesse intermédiaire, troisième cycle primaire, 10-12 ansRashmi Sirdeshpande, award-winning author of Good News and Never Teach a Stegosaurus to do Sums ‘Fresh and original, it's full of Biddulph's characteristic warmth and, of course, his striking illustrations’ Peanut Jones und die Stadt der Bilder von Rob Biddulph ist uns wegen des ungewöhnlichen Covers, welches in Grautönen gehalten ist, aufgefallen.

Die Erzählung und die Charaktere sind sehr liebevoll. Es wird gezeigt wie wichtig Freundschaft und Familie sind und dass Freundlichkeit einen oft weiter bringt. Kreativität wird als wichtiger Bestandteil des Lebens betont. Das ist eine Botschaft, die der Autor auch während der Pandemie mit kostenlosen Zeichenkursvideos für Kinder unterstützt hat. I couldn't wait to find out if Peanut & her gang could.... Well you'll find out when you read a copy for yourself or share it at bedtime. Le thème des arts est central, nous avons autant de diversité de ces divers formes dans le monde de Chroma que nous avons de références aux artistes eux-même. Certains décors sont même des oeuvres connues, notamment le peintre Monet et Van Gogh. L'idée de faire coexister le thème des beaux arts avec les lois de la Physique est amusant et se côtoient bien. Il y a des sciences dans les arts et vice versa, ça n'a rien de nouveau, mais on voit généralement peu ce rapprochement dans la littérature jeunesse de manière générale. A vividly illustrated, immersive romp that will leave readers desperate for the next instalment' – GuardianHe lives in London with his wife and three daughters and hasn't given up hope that, maybe, one of them will go to an Arsenal match with him one day. In the story Peanut Jones is desperately missing her dad who mysteriously vanished and she is hating life at her new school. She’s just served detention for drawing a fire-breathing vampire unicorn in her physics book, and just about had it. Peanut loves drawing though and by chance she accidentally uncovers a magical pencil where the things she draws come to life. It is from here that the adventure begins.

Wildly imaginative, brilliantly written and perfectly illustrated. This is a joy to read.' – David Walliams

LoveReading4Kids Says

This is a magical, exciting new adventure series for readers aged 8/9+ from the amazing picture book illustrator Rob Biddulph (Draw with Rob) Amongst the illustrations is where the story is occurring all around them, not always in a traditional words then picture kind of a way, but almost more in a synergy kind of a way. It's all eye-catching. Peanut musste von ihrer alten Schule auf eine absolut grauenhafte Schule mit Abertausend Regeln wechseln und ist dementsprechend froh, die Chance auf ein Abenteuer zu haben, als sie den magischen Bleistift findet. Sie ist kreativ, schlau (auch, wenn sie das nicht unbedingt zeigen möchte) und eine gute Anführerin. BookTrust ‘a vividly illustrated, immersive romp that will leave readers desperate for the next instalment’
