‘Farther’

by Grahame Baker-Smith

When a father who dreams of flying goes off to war and doesn’t  return, his son decides to make his dream come true.  Grahame’s moving story, with stunning illustrations, shows how, with love and a bit of ambition, you can reach seemingly impossible goals.

Using photographic collage and illustration, this is the first book that Grahame has written and illustrated.   Constantly experimenting with different styles of illustration, Grahame likes to challenge the conventional boundaries with his artwork. He is now working on a new masterpiece ‘Tales from Terramaunia’.
