Книга: Jill Murphy «Whatever Next!»
Производитель: "Неизвестный" This is an imaginative and magical picture book by award-winning author/illustrator Jill Murphy, creator of Peace at Last, A Quiet Night In and other stories featuring the Large family. Baby Bear wants to go to the moon and so searches around the house until he finds a rocket (a cardboard box), a space-helmet (a colander) and space-boots (his wellies). All set, he blasts off out of the chimney and into the night. Joined by an owl, Baby Bear soars high into the night sky until finally they reach the moon. Of course, when he returns to earth for his bath, his mother doesn`t believe where he has been. Jill Murphy captures Baby Bear`s sense of high adventure and his innocence, as he reaches for his dream, in both the simple easy-to-read-aloud text and in the bold, colourful illustrations.

Biography
Jill showed an interest in writing and drawing at the age of 4, and despite not excelling in other school subjects, had written 91 books before her late teens. She attended the Ursuline Convent in Wimbledon which, together with the boarding school stories she enjoyed reading, provided much of the material and inspiration for Miss Cackle's Academy in "The Worst Witch" series. She grew up a Roman Catholic but is no longer a practising Catholic. Her mother was a working class woman but a "book maniac" and her father was an Irish engineer.*cite news | last = Craig| first =A | coauthors = | title =Parenting: The longest goodbye | work = | pages = | language = | publisher = The Times | date = She started to write "The Worst Witch" at the age of 15, but put the book on hold while she attended Chelsea and Croydon She gave birth to her son Charlie in Spring 1990, having divorced his father while pregnant at the age of 40. Charlie, now 17, is dyslexic. Jill put on weight after the birth of her son, reaching 14st 2lb in 1990, but eventually lost three and a half stone with LighterLife.*cite news | last = Deeley | first =L | coauthors = | title =Back on top after a bad spell | work = | pages = | language = | publisher = The Times | date = In 1995 she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She had a partial mastectomy and a year of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and after five years on Tamoxifen she was given the all-clear. She chooses to wear a padded bra rather than undergo reconstructive surgery. Jill was extremely close to her Aunt Kit and in 1997 her aunt began to show signs of dementia. Jill looked after her for two years, commuting to Wimbledon from her home in Cornwall to do so, and in 1999 she moved her aunt to a nursing home in Cornwall near Jill's own house, where she died later that year. Six months after Kit's death, Jill's mother began to show signs of dementia, and Jill ended up taking her mother into her own home to care for her for a number of years. In 2003 her mother went into a nursing home where she later died. Jill could not work properly during the ten years she was caring for her aunt and mother, hence the reduction in books published around this time. The Worst Witch stories have become some of the most outstandingly successful titles on the Young Puffin paperback list and have sold more than 3 million copies. They were also made into a successful She is also well known for her picture books, in particular for the very popular "Mr and Mrs Large" picture books, which detail the domestic chaos of an elephant family. In 1996 "The Last Noo-Noo" was adapted as a play and performed at the Polka Theatre, London.
