Bob Wilson ('Robert Peter Wilson' - born 29 October 1942) is a cartoonist, artist and author of children's books from North Staffordshire. He is probably best known for the Stanley Bagshaw series of children's books. He is also responsible for the Pump Street Primary series of books and the Joshua Jones TV cartoon series. The illustrations from the books were used to create a six-part Yorkshire Television series for ITV, first broadcast in 1984. The Stanley Bagshaw series is entirely written in rhyme. In the series, Stanley is portrayed as a young boy around 10 years of age. He lives in a fictional town called "Huddersgate", Oop North, “where it’s boring and slow” – with his Grandma at number four, Prince Albert Row. Stanley goes through a series of unlikely adventures in which he is invariably the hero, defeating thieves and preventing tragedies. A 1989 documentary by Thames Television illustrates the methods Wilson uses to construct the books. More information...
