A CHRISTMAS CAROL<br />

Illustrated by P.J. Lynch<br />

<strong>Conville</strong> & <strong>Walsh</strong> <strong>Ltd</strong><br />

Fiction<br />

P.J. Lynch is one of the most talented and revered illustrators working today. He has won many<br />

awards, including the Mother Goose Award; the Irish Bisto Award twice; and the Kate Greenaway<br />

Medal twice, in 1995 for The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey and again in 1997 for When Jesse<br />

Came Across the Sea. ‘I’ve been thinking of illustrating A CHRISTMAS CAROL for many years’, says<br />

P.J. ‘When I lived in Brighton, I used to walk daily past a gravestone belonging to a man named<br />

Ebenezer Robbins, who died on Christmas Day, 1842. In my mind, I felt sure that this man must have<br />

in some way inspired Dickens to create Ebenezer Scrooge in 1843. And I knew that one day I would<br />

illustrate this extraordinary story’.<br />
