Jarvis is the illustrator of Poles Apart and I’m In Charge. He did lots of different jobs before creating his first children’s book, including work as a bingo caller, a bouncy-castle painter, a record-sleeve designer and an animation director. He’s always doodled characters, and thinks that everything he’s done in the past has helped make him a better children’s picture book illustrator and writer…Maybe not the bingo calling…
Jarvis wants the books he creates to be very personal, and particularly loves the nature of children’s books, what they can do and how they can be kept and loved as little treasures.
