Author Biography

John S. Goodall was born in Norfolk, England, and began to draw and paint when he was four years old. He attended the Royal Academy School of Art in London and began painting in watercolors in India during World War II. Upon his return to England, he painted portraits of members of the royal family. Mr. Goodall created his first children's books informally for his daughter and granddaughter, devising a new format in which he alternated full and half pages of watercolor illustration. In all, Goodall created more than thirty-five wordless picture books for children, including stories about Paddy Pork, Shrewbettina, and Naughty Nancy, as well as such titles as The Story of a Farm, The Story of a Main Street, and Great Days of a Country House.
