Picture This at the British Library

This tiny exhibition is charming but for me, frustratingly small. Only really because I love classic children's books and illustrations and felt greedy for more, more, more stories and more pictures and more information.

However it is free and worth a visit. I may even go again. It shows how different illustrators have illustrated stories including The Secret Garden, Peter Pan, The Hobbit, Paddington (original Paddington Bear below) etc.

I was disappointed that my favourite Peter Pan illustrations weren't there though!
