During the Japanese advance on Hong Kong he escaped to China where he became involved with guerrilla training. In 1942 he was gazetted with an Emergency Commission, Indian Army (London Gazette 11.7.1942) and joined Eastern Command, and was seconded to “V Force” (based in Jorhat) his time being involved with gaining intelligence from various hill tribesmen of Nagaland. He was then attached to the British Army Aid Group (BAAG) in the Kweilin-Lipu area of Kwangsi Province, China during the Japanese offensive. Parties from the BAAG demolished all road bridges for 40 miles NE of Kweilin and mined bridges on the Kweilin-Lipu-Liuchow road in their scorched earth policy. These actions stalled the Japanese advance and allowed the 14th USAAF to continue using Liuchow as a base for their bombing missions. Colonel L. T. Ride of the BAAG wrote “Major Teesdale’s courage, technical skill and devotion to duty were leading factors in the success of these operations and his example was a great inspiration to the Chinese Forces with whom he established most cordial relations”. Major Teesdale’s Military Cross (London Gazette 5th November 1946) was for service “engaged in Special Operations South East Asia”. Post war Major Teesdale remained with the Colonial Office in Hong Kong and, in the June 1964 birthday honours, was awarded the C.M.G. as Colonial Secretary, Hong Kong. Some of his wartime exploits, including demolition activities, are included in his 3 volume diary housed at the Imperial War Museum. Received directly from the family.

Then he studied English at Downing College, Cambridge, going on to do a postgraduate teaching diploma at the University of London, followed by life-classes at Chelsea Art School. He has always made his living as an illustrator, as well as teaching for over twenty years at the Royal College of Art, where he was head of the Illustration department from 1978 to 1986. His first drawings were published in Punch while he was 16 and still at school. He continued to draw for Punch, The Spectator and other magazines over many years, while at the same time entering the world of children's books with A Drink of Water by John Yeoman in 1960. He is known for his collaboration with writers such as Russell Hoban, Joan Aiken, Michael Rosen, John Yeoman and, most famously, Roald Dahl. He has also illustrated classic books, including A Christmas Carol and Candide and created much-loved characters of his own, including Mister Magnolia and Mrs Armitage.Since the 1990s Quentin Blake has had an additional career as exhibition curator, curating shows in, among other places, the National Gallery, the British Library and the Musée du Petit Palais in Paris. In the last few years he has begun to make larger-scale work for hospitals and healthcare settings in the UK and France where his work can be seen in wards and public spaces. Most recently he has completed a scheme for the whole of a new maternity hospital in Angers.His books have won numerous prizes and awards, including the Whitbread Award, the Kate Greenaway Medal, the Emil/Kurt Maschler Award and the international Bologna Ragazzi Prize. He won the 2002 Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration, the highest international recognition given to creators of children's books.

In 2014 he was admitted to the Legion d'Honneur, an honour accorded to few people who are not French nationals. In 1999 he was appointed the first ever Children's Laureate, a post designed to raise the profile of children's literature.
