Bid for original, signed artwork by Axel Scheffler – and help raise money for charity

Last weekend, Pip and Posy illustrator Axel Scheffler took part in two fantastic live-drawing and storytelling sessions at the National Trust Children’s Literature Festival at Quarry Bank – and today, we’re very pleased to say that we’ll be auctioning some of the original artwork that Axel produced at each event, in aid of charity. There are eight different signed, dated original pieces available to bid on, featuring some of Axel’s best-known and most loved characters – including The Gruffalo and Pip and Posy – and all proceeds will go to Three Peas, a charity offering help and support to the thousands of people suffering and fleeing civil war in Syria and other war torn countries.

Here are each of the pieces being auctioned:

Please do bid generously for this hugely important cause – and good luck!
