He is influenced by the simplicity of books by Lucy Cousins and Dick Bruna as well as drawings by children themselves. In 2017 Max was shortlisted for the Penguin Student Design Award for his book jacket design of Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird. His work has been featured in children’s magazines and My Friends is his first picture book. Max Low lives in Crickhowell, Powys.
