Author Description

A distillation of childhood, treasured moments of growing up, making dens, sharing ice creams, losing friends, making new ones. The Crab Lane Crew experience the deceptively small moments of childhood, that mean the whole world to them. CRAB LANE CREW first appeared in the highly acclaimed British comics weekly, The DFC, from David Fickling Books. Jim Medway's gentle, but beautifully observed humour has gained him much praise over the years, including being nominated for The Young People's British Comics Awards in 2013 for his first graphic novel, Playing Out (Blank Slate, 2013). Jim regularly illustrated for museums and heritage venues around the country.
