"Standing on the Shoulders of Giants is a significant record of collective insight, offered by twenty of Australia's prominent picture book authors and illustrators. The unique collection of their dialogue with Mark Rafidi covers an astonishing range of subjects, without ever losing sight of their love for picture books. The authors and illustrators reflect on the dynamics of the picture book medium, their own works and processes and in doing so, reveal more about the person behind the name." - Back cover.
