Jess Bradley is an illustrator and character designer based
in Bristol. Jess prefers to hand-draw before digitally colouring
her work. Her style is typically cute, colourful and quirky. She
has created puzzle, activity and comic books for various
publishers, including contributing to Usborne’s bestselling Write
and Draw Your Own Comics. Her work for Buster Books includes the
Bright Sparks series, I Heart Cute Colouring and the upcoming,
laugh-out-loud A Day in the Life of Poo, a Gnu and You.
This colourful, cartoon-style reference book brings history to life
with humour and fun. It is packed full of interesting facts and
presented in an entertaining comic style that is a joy to read. A
great book to sit and read individually, or to dip into as a class
when exploring related topics.
