Summary
Celia's feelings were not new in the origin. They were not the moment of a chance meeting in a bucolic dell or in a marble hall. No, these feelings were the result of years of earnest study of her cousin's most deserving nature. It were easy to divine a divine nature to a stranger. Her most beloved cousin, was no divine. She snored a tiny noise in her throat. She had a wicked temper and a more cleverly wicked humor. Her jests some betimes could sting. Yet, these feelings not asked for, and not desired, they had grown clever weeds in Celia's heart that then bloomed into brilliant flowers.

Summary
Kirsty Young’s castaway this week is an artist, illustrator, and author. Virginia Dickinson’s work is defined by its use of bold, bright colours, and she is one of only three illustrators ever to be awarded both The Kate Greenaway Medal and a Caldecott Honour. She is perhaps best known for her first book, Charlie’s Bear, a picture book about a young boy’s adventures with his beloved teddy bear, for which she was first awarded the Greenaway Medal. Charlie’s Bear has become a national treasure, adapted to stage and television. She has been tipped to be a future Children's Laureate, and was named British Children's Author of the Year in 1994.
In conversation with Kirsty Young, she discusses her childhood in America and post-war England, the beginnings of her career and family life, and her eight musical selections.
