Andreas Schuster: illustrator behind James Turner's Toby and the Pixies chapter-book series — clean-lined, bright, dialogue-driven illustration for funny-bone chapter books, ages 6–9.

Andreas Schuster is an illustrator best known to children's-book readers as the visual partner of James Turner on the Toby and the Pixies chapter-book series (Best Frenemies, How to be Cool!, Pixie Pandemonium, Worst King Ever!), illustrated chapter books that share the absurd-comedy register of Turner's Star Cat work. Schuster's style is clean-lined, bright and character-led, well-matched to Turner's dialogue-driven storytelling. He works almost exclusively as illustrator. A reliable visual signal of funny-bone illustrated chapter books for ages 6–9 in the Phoenix-Comic-flavoured British comedy tradition.
