Lucia’s novella, The Karloff Tiara, is also available on Amazon as is the album, SHOW, by Victor de Sveynes.Face to Face with Strabismus is the co-creation of Lucia Wilson, writer, and Francesca Cesari, photographer (www.francescacesari.com).Cedric the bear is the original creation of Katie Eggington (nee Mantell).Katie is the designer and creative force behind Creative Threads. (creative-threads.co.uk).Both Cedric and Katie were featured in the BBC programme, Paul Martin's Handmade Revolution in 2012. Katie was one of the winning designers and Cedric was proudly displayed in the V&A Museum shop. On seeing the rerun of the programme in 2016, Lucia decided to approach Katie (they had never met before) to discuss creating a series of children’s stories based on Cedric. Anne Bowes, a talented illustrator and jewellery designer (www.annebowesjewellery) joined the project and has created some delightful illustrations, full of charm and energy. Lucia is the writer of all three stories - Cedric at the Museum, Cedric and the Button Bear and Cedric in Paris. She consulted closely with Katie throughout the process to ensure that she captured Cedric's own unique character because Cedric is a bear like no other!
