Edward Hopper and the Carrot Crunch

A Tale of Greed, Financial Mismanagement and Rabbits

This was a children’s book I wrote at the end of 2009, when the collapse of the banks was big news. It went on to win the Macmillan Prize for Children’s Book Illustration, but never saw the light of day as a published book, partly because it was thought that the world financial turmoil would be ancient history by the time it reached print, after two years.

Well here we are, and it’s still big news, so it’s now available as an ebook, downloadable from the iBookstore. If you have an iPad then you might like to get it.

Here are a couple of pages to give you a flavour.
