Sugar and Spice

Sugar and Spice are a collection of animal figurines made of resin and pewter based on Anita Jeram's original artwork. These superb figurines portray the delicate and witty sentiment of her illustrations and artwork.

Anita Jeram was born and brought up in Portsmouth. After school she had a variety of jobs including working in a crisp factory and as a kennel assistant. She did a foundation course in visual studies at Manchester Polytechnic, followed by a degree course in illustration. Her tutor, also an illustrator, took some of her work to Walker Books and her first book, Bill's Belly Button, was published a year after she graduated. Her second book, It Was Jake!, was included on the National Curriculum SAT reading list. Anita is best known for Guess How Much I Love You, which has rapidly become established around the world as a new picture-book classic. Over a million copies were printed in the first year of publication and it was one of the best-selling children's books in both Britain and America. Guess How Much I Love You was shortlisted for the 1994 Kurt Maschler Award and for the Illustrated Children's Books category of the 1994 Bristish Book Awards. Anita particularly enjoys drawing animals and has a menagerie of animals at home including cats, a dog, ducks, chickens and reptiles.
