From the excellent Guardian‘s overview on the best in current children’s literature, dated 31 March:

The greatest stories ever told
…What’s the story? Classics for every age
Age 0-5…
Neil Gaiman (words) and Dave McKean (pictures) form the most
distinctive partnership working in picture books (The Wolves in the Walls, The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish). Scary stories, though no more so than your average fairy tale. Gaiman lives in America, McKean in Kent, and their collaboration is phone-based.
