Steve has many years professional experience of collaborative practice with the major educational publishers, editors, in-house designers and authors. His creative practice includes illustration, logo design, cover design and full series design including online resource. His primary passion is for children’s illustration and this is demonstrated in his creation of the new Collins Picture Atlas alongside the accompanying World Map and, more recently, the map of the United Kingdom & Ireland. Collins makes books full of ideas, creativity, hands-on activities and opportunities to find out more about the things that interest children. We want our books to inspire and entertain them, celebrate their passions and interests and support their emotional wellbeing. We also want to help children be aware of our impact on the planet, which is why all of our books are carefully made with responsibly sourced materials.
