Sources

Today I visited in order to cover the Greenaway Medal adequately. I depart having done that and also using one source very heavily to expand and revise, namely the Seven Stories collection catalogue (ref name=seven) which in turn cites two print sources more than five and ten years old.

• Jack Zipes (ed.), 'Oxford Encyclopedia of Children's Literature' (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2006);
• Victor Watson, 'The Cambridge Guide to Children's Books in English' (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2001)

In the list of works I have moved the five books illustrated by Laurence out of the long alphabetical listing [now chronological] but barely used the catalog otherwise. Its chronological list, "Books written and illustrated by Pat Hutchins include:" begins with 18 published by The Bodley Head thru 1988 and continues 1990 to 2007 with publications mainly by a series of imprints(?) in this order: Julia MacRae (<10), Red Fox (>10), HarperCollins (4); with a sprinkling by Bodley. --P64 (talk) 22:18, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Today I have used that source [ref name=seven] to expand listings (publisher/date), add a few more, and order by date. That section ends with six titles that [ref name=seven] does not list. --P64 (talk) 22:08, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Bookfinder Laurence Hutchins at Bookfinder credits LH with

[a] ill. three "Flossie" books by Hunter Davies;

[b] two "Nero" books alone. Rats! alone, where we and Seven Stories say written by PH;

[c] ill. a sixth book written by PH, not currently mentioned or listed here, namely:

I'm the King of the Castle!: And Other Plays for Children, "Three short new plays for young audiences by one of the UK's best loved children's authors."

Novels

Previous editors relying on HarperCollins credited her with five novels. The short prose biog at Seven Stories, which I have otherwise mined, says "several novels for early readers, many of them illustrated by her husband, Laurence Hutchins." Several? Many? Seven Stories also lists five book illus. by Laurence without comment on their type (novels?); I have simply followed by removing those five from the main list under their own subsection heading.

This article should both distinguish novels from picture books (the only two categories?) and cover the wife-and-husband teamwork --in prose and list consistently. Possibly the print #Sources do this. --P64 (talk) 22:18, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
