Dougal was presented with the Distinguished Achievement Award for Excellence in Educational Journalism by The Educational Press Association of America in 1993, The Children's Book Council 1994 Outstanding Trade Science Book Award, and the Times Educational Supplement Primary Schoolbook Award 1996. In 1996 he was appointed as a trustee of the Dinosaur Society, UK. In 2019, his ""When the Whales Walked"", was awarded the Children's Choice Award by the School Library Association. He has made several television appearances, and acted as a consultant and animator for a video programme about dinosaurs. Mat Edwards is an extraordinarily versatile artist, who can create everything from photorealistic prehistoric vistas to vintage-style paintings. Such was Mat's talent at school that he won a four-year apprenticeship with Johnson Mattheys, where he learned at the feet of some tremendously skilled artists. Mat is admired for his talent, imagination, and eye for detail."
