Korky has since illustrated more very successful books for Oxford, Random House, Penguin and many other publishers.

He was born in Harare, Zimbabwe in 1951 into a family of seven children. He enjoyed a wild and priviliged childhood in Africa.

In 1976, as Korky puts it, he „fled for Europehe”  landed up in Greece and began his career as a children`s book illustrator.

Korky Paul has very quickly become a well-known figure in the children`s book world and he is especially popular with the young children who read his books and are carried away into a fantasy world by the illusstrations.

He is married to the artist Susan Moxley and they have two children Zoe and Oska. They  live in Oxford, Britain.
