When Mickey Moonbeam gets an SOS from outer space he jests off straight away to offer his help. He soon finds himself in a much bigger problem than he’d expected. Bold illustrations capture the excitement of Mickey’s adventure.
Mike has worked as a freelance illustrator for many years. He has worked for many well-known UK and international companies, and has created branded characters for the likes of Marks and Spencer and Boots, as well as writing and drawing a long-running cartoon strip for the Royal Mail. In 1997 he began to write and illustrate children's picture books. The first to be published was WAY OUT WEST . . . WITH A BABY, closely followed by LITTLE ROBOTS. This second book attracted the attention of Lego Media (now Create TV and Film), and has now been turned into a major animated TV show. As well as creating the book, Mike has also written several of the episodes for the TV series.
Mike's other recent picture books include THE BIG WHITE BOOK, I'VE GOT NITS!, LITTLE ROBOT RABBIT and BOUNCING BABIES. He is currently working on a picture book for Bloomsbury entitled MICKEY MOONBEAM.
