Richard Carpenter died in February 2012 - many obituaries celebrated his work: 'In any list of the finest children's writers of the late 20th century, Richard Carpenter deserves to be included, and if it wasn't for the lingering prejudice against television as a medium the equal of literature and film, this would undoubtedly be the case' - The Independent, Feb 2012.
