Critic Brian Alderson (children's book critic) called him "perhaps the most original children's book illustrator of the period".

Jones was born in London and studied illustration there from 1920 at Goldsmiths College, under Edmund Sullivan, a former teacher of Arthur Rackham; at the Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts in 1922–1923; and then on scholarship at the Royal College of Art.Шаблон:R

Jones's most acclaimed work was Lavender's Blue: A book of nursery rhymes (1954), a collection of nursery rhymes named for one of them, "Lavender's Blue". The British Library Association awarded Jones "Special Commendation" for the 1954 Carnegie Medal, which recognised the year's outstanding children's book written by a British subject; it provided a "major reason" for the organisation to establish its companion Kate Greenaway Medal for illustration that year (1955).Шаблон:R Lavender's Blue, published in the U.S. by Franklin Watts in 1956,Шаблон:R was named a Notable Book by the American Library Association and to the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award list in 1960.Шаблон:R
