He wrote a great number of children¿s books, including The Sheep-Pig (winner of the Guardian Award and filmed as Babe), Harry¿s Mad, Noah¿s Brother, The Queen¿s Nose, Martin¿s Mice, Ace, The Cuckoo Child and Harriet¿s Hare (winner of the Children¿s Book Award in 1995). At the British Book Awards in 1991 he was voted Children¿s Author of the Year. In 2009 he was made an OBE for services to children¿s literature. Dick King-Smith died in 2011 at the age of eighty-eight. Discover more about Dick King-Smith at: dickkingsmith.com
