 Peter
Froome is the illustrator, director and animator of the
Adventures of Ben Labra d'Ollie series
of children's books. The first episode, Ben and the Bomb Fire, was published in Spring 2010.
The second episode, Ben and the Hot Cross Bunny,
was published in August 2011, and the third, Ben and
the Box of Surprises, in August 2012.
Each book is accompanied by a 10-minute animation
on DVD and the illustrations are based on stills
from the animation.
The story on which it is based is a delightful tale of a not-very-brave dog called Ben and
the adventures he has trying to avoid trouble.
 Some stills from the first episode are shown on
this page and short clips from the films are shown
on the
Ben Labra d'Ollie website and Wild Country
Lane Studios'
YouTube channel.
The animation is carried out mainly in
Autodesk®
Softimage® with a few shots in
LightWave 3D®.
