Anita Jeram featured at Eden Gallery in Lichfield

Anita Jeram was born and brought up in Portsmouth. Anita worked in a variety of jobs after leaving school, before doing a foundation course in Visual Studies at Manchester Polytechnic, followed by a degree course in illustration. Her first book, Bill’s Belly Button, was published a year after she graduated. Anita is best known as an illustrator of children’s storybooks, particularly the modern classic 

 GUESS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU, which was shortlisted for the 1994 Kurt Maschler Award.

Anita is married to a palaeontologist and has three children and a menagerie of animals, including cats, dogs, rabbits, toads, a lizard, a snake and a tortoise. She lives in Northern Ireland, and hopes eventually to set up a wildlife sanctuary there.

These illustrations are taken from the best-selling books Guess How Much I Love You, written by Sam McBratney. These books have become an iconic family classic, and these wonderful illustrations taken from the original books are a Collector’s Limited Edition Print (approved by Walker Books Ltd) and are a limited production of 595 copies. Each framed print is supplied with a certificate of authenticity.
