The Elizabethan A rare survivor of the Children's magazine that acted as the template for the Puffin Post. It was edited by Kaye Webb before she joined Puffin and featured competitions, a club, author interviews, readers stories, contemporary illustration by Quentin Blake, and more. Just a little snip from Design For Today's book on the Puffin Club, to be published in 2018. #elizabethan #puffinpost #kayewebb #designfortoday #childrensmagazine

Maggie Scraggle Jill McDonald My contribution to #postyourpuffin had to include something by the wonderful Jill McDonald. She met Kaye Webb in New Zealand when Kaye was on one of her Puffin tours who immediately asked her to get in touch if Jill visited England. When Jill eventually arrived Kaye snapped her up to illustrate the new Puffin Club magazine. Almost single handed lay Jill created the most fabulous branding of Puffin and with her distinctive calligraphy, illustration and quirky offbeat humour she was magnificent. Sadly she died tragically young and with her passing and Kaye's retirement the Puffin Club lost momentum. #jillmcdonald #puffinclub #puffinpost #kayewebb #graphicdesign #pufginbooks @penguincollsoc @penguinpressart

#postyourpuffin Calling all Puffineers! Help celebrate today's 50th Anniversary of the Puffin Club by sharing your favourite Puffins until midnight tonight using the hashtag #postyourpuffin and enjoy the gallery of Puffin memories that have been posted. Kaye Webb's Puffin Club shaped a generation of young readers, bringing engagement, loyalty and fun to reading. Puffin books were to outsell Penguin Books during Kaye's time at Penguin and touched hundreds of thousands of children, and in time their children. Time to celebrate! #puffinclub #postyourpuffin #kayewebb #jillmcdonald #nuffinlikeapuffin #illustrationhq @penguincollsoc @penguinpressart @penguinukbooks @puffinbooks
