‘V. H. Drummond’, credited as the book’s illustrator, stands for Violet Hilda Drummond (1911–2000), a British children’s author and illustrator of the 1930-1970s. Pictures for later books in the Carbonel series were created by other artists (but Drummond’s hand can be seen in the illustrations for Lawrence Durrell and Helen Cresswell, among others).
