Antony Penrose remembers Joan Miró as a quiet, kind and smartly dressed man, who painted wonderfully strange worlds filled with magic animals.

In his latest picture book for children, Antony recounts some of his most vivid memories, which are beautifully illustrated with Miró’s most famous artworks, Lee Miller’s photography, and specially commissioned Miró-inspired artworks by children.
