Publisher's Synopsis

Watch Quentin Blake's Clown, a major new TV animation narrated by Helena Bonham-Carter, this Christmas on Channel 4.

The perfect gift for sharing with friends and family all year long.

When a box of toys is thrown away, a determined clown sets out to find a new loving home for himself and his friends.

Told entirely through pictures, this award-winning and heart-warming adventure starring one of Sir Quentin Blake's own favourite characters is filled with hope, joy and friendship.

Sir Quentin Blake is one of Britain's best-loved and most successful author-illustrators, and was made the Children's Laureate in 1999. He has won the Whitbread Award, the Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration, and the Kate Greenaway Medal among others.

Praise for Clown:
"I was gripped all the way through to the happy ending" Daily Telegraph
"Quentin Blake, a master of graphic eloquence..." Guardian
"An astonishing tour de force" Margaret Clark in Books for Keeps
