The Lion and the Rat

[edit]

The Lion and the Rat (Oxford, 1967) is one of four books by Wildsmith that were "Commended" runners up for the Greenaway Medal. After poking around only a little, I don't know whether or not this Wildsmith/Oxford book is an illustrated edition of (perhaps someone's new translation of?) specifically this short poem by La Fontaine (in 1841 translation). --P64 (talk) 23:40, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Image

[edit]

We should have an image of at least one of his illustrations --maybe but not necessarily the cover art for one of his books.

{{Infobox writer}} commonly includes a portrait. That's ok but an image of his work will be more valuable here, I believe. --P64 (talk) 01:25, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Works

[edit]
second of two new sections posted at once

Today I added section Selected Works by reference to WorldCat. The particular selection of seven includes the first five listed at WorldCat: "Wildsmith, Brian" [ref name=worldcat] --that is, the first five of 20 most widely held (catalogued) by participating libraries. --P64 (talk) 01:25, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not how it works. You source it in the article. Don't make other people do your job for you. --Nicknack009 (talk) 11:24, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I think I understand now how works wiki, only reverts -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Nicknack009 Then we will let him live if it's what wikipedia wants, write lies. Thanks. --Danielvis08 (talk) 13:52, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
