anita jeram & dick king-smith

another picture book post! unfortunately, there are not many images available online - all the ones here are from amazon & google images, so i suggest you go to a bookstore or library and admire their fluffiness there x)!



I Love Guinea Pigs by Dick King-Smith, illustrated by Anita Jeram

most of you will probably know anita jeram from that really popular mother's day present book quite a few years ago called 'Guess How Much I Love You', but i only started actively seeking more of her work because of this book - the illustrations are soooo cuteee! T__T and i tried copying it, but gave up and ended up tracing it and colouring it with pencils. anyway.
to my surprise, dick king-smith's writing was quite informative too! i thought it'd be just story telling.

All Together Now by Anita Jeram

this book, i actually own (well a combined version called 'Bunny Love' with the book above & 'Bunny My Honey'), so i don't have to go to the library to smile stupidly at a book. instead of guinea pig adorable-ness, it's Mummy Rabbit, Bunny, my Honey, Little Duckling & Miss Mouse.




the message: find her books. it will be worthwhile ;D

book depository: i love guinea pigs, all together now, bunny my honey

oliver jeffers

i love oliver jeffer's picture books (you can browse the book, without the words) - simple and lightly touching stories, with wonderful illustrations ;D

and this video just makes me want to have an ipad to play with.

knowledge, chill.

i've only started reading Sarah Wilson's sunday columns from this year, and started reading her blog recently
'this blog makes life better, sweeter'
i agree - her posts are so diverse, informative and non-imposing, and you never know when you'll find them useful.

(& on a related note, added Alex Noriega's "stuff no one told me (but i learned anyway)" blog to the links list on the right)
