Spinach Explores London

Paul Chapman wrote and illustrated his very first Spinach the Green Dog adventure after receiving a green cuddly toy dog in 1975. An architect by training, his interest in architecture has inspired the creativity of his illustrations and interest in travel and photography. He has self-published seven stories about Spinach, as well as a children's novel, other short stories and poetry, two of which have been published in anthologies. He currently leads a creative writing group at a homeless charity in central London, and has also received a number of commissions as an installation artist in Battersea, working with local school children.
