Colin West

Colin West was born in 1951 and left school as soon as he could go to art school where he studied Graphic Design at Wolverhampton Polytechnic, and Illustration at the Royal College of Art, London. Shortly after graduating in 1975, his first book, a collection of nonsense verse, was published. Since then he has written over fifty more children’s books, and aims to continue till he runs out of ideas! His many titles for children include “Have You Seen the Crocodile?” and “Buzz, Buzz, Buzz Went the Bumblebee”. Colin lives in Essex.
