Martin Brown was born in Melbourne, on the proper side of the world. Ever since he can remember he’s been drawing. His dad used to bring back huge sheets of paper from work and Martin would fill them with doodles and little figures. Then, quite suddenly, with food and water, Martin grew up, moved to the UK and found work doing what he’s always wanted to do: drawing doodles and little figures.

Books such as the Horrible Histories series, have transformed what children learn of science, history and the world The Sunday Times
