Chloe Preston, 1887-1969, was an illustrator of children's books. Her works include drawings to stories by May Byron and Tom Preston with such wonderful characters as the Peek-a-Boos with their trademark 'goo goo' eyes, and the little wooden Chunkies. She also designed numerous series of postcards for Valentines and Raphael Tuck, soft toys and advertisements for several companies. Her nursery designs were produced by Paragon China Co. Mary Hillier's charming book is a richly illustrated record of Chloe Preston's work (including all the postcards) and also explores the life and family background of this elusive artist.
