Illustrated by William Plomer.

Acclaimed artist Alan Aldridge was responsible for agreat many album covers during the 1960s and 1970s,and helped create the graphic style of that era. In 1973,he created a picture book, The Butterfl y Ball and theGrasshopper's Feast. The book was loosely based on thepoem telling the story of a party for insects and smallanimals written in 1802 by William Roscoe. Aldridge'sstunning illustrations of brightly coloured creatureswere accompanied by verses written by William Plomer. Much to Aldridge's surprise, the book sold 50,000hardback copies in its fi rst three weeks of publishing,and went on to reach 250,000 by Christmas. It wastranslated into ten languages and sales reached over amillion world-wide in its fi rst year. It spawned a cartoon movie, merchandise and a hitalbum by Deep Purple's Roger Glover. Now in thissplendid new edition, this classic work will delight anew generation of readers.
