I’m thinking that Oliver Jeffers is the most talented painter, illustrator and writer EVER! His intricate drawings, along with clever collage, painting, interesting bits of text and beautiful story all work together to create the most amazing works of art. Whenever I read either of these books at Beehive, I instantly want to become part of the story and crawl right onto the page.
The Heart and the Bottle and The Incredible Book Eating Boy are in my collection, and if they’re not in yours, hop on over to here to shop, peruse, and gasp (like me). You will be glad you did.
