Title:
A Frog he would a-Wooing Go (1883)
Description:
For my good friend Alan Moores aka blinddrunkal. Thank you Alan :-) #7-Most Responded(This Week)-Education #15-Most Responded(Today)-Education #24-Top Rated(This Week)-Education #25-Top Rated(Today)-Education #21-Most Discussed(Today)-Education #93-Most Viewed(Today)-Education #34-Most Responded(This Month)-Education #59-Most Discussed(This Week)-Education Randolph Caldecott (1846-1886) transformed the world of children's books in the Victorian era. Children eagerly awaited the two books illustrated by him, priced at a shilling each, which came out each Christmas for eight years. Randolph's output, however, ranged wider than this: he illustrated novels and accounts of foreign travel; he made humorous drawings depicting hunting and fashionable life; he drew cartoons and he made sketches of the famous inside Parliament and out of it; he also exhibited sculptures and paintings in oil and watercolour in the Royal Academy and galleries. Randolph was born in Chester on 22 March 1846 at 150 Bridge Street (now No 16) where today there is a plaque to commemorate him. His father, John Caldecott, was a Chester business man and an accountant of some note who was married twice and had 13 children. Randolph was his third child by his first wife Mary Dinah (née Brookes). In 1848 the family moved to Challoner House, Crook Street and in 1860 to 23 Richmond Place at Boughton just outside Chester. He spent the last five years of his schooling at The King's School which, in those days, was in the cathedral buildings in the centre of the city. In his early childhood Randolph drew and modelled, mostly animals, and he continued drawing for the rest of his life. There is a small oil painting in Chester of his brother Alfred painted during his school days. Randolph Caldecott influenced the work of Beatrix Potter. Two of Randolph's pictures still hang in her house in the Lake District, UK.

 | Say goodbye to Mr.Fog, and hello to Jesu & Geko! Yep! Mr.Frog is officially history! He had no depth or content, he was too simple and plain boring!

This series has lots of characters and adventures that readers can relate too, PLUS, I'm having more fun writing the script and drawing the art! YAY! |
