I LOVE Jan Brett. We have "The Owl...Gretchen,<br />I LOVE Jan Brett. We have "The Owl and the Pussycat," "On Noah's Ark," "The Mitten," and maybe one more by her...they're fabulous and full of detail! We also love the Ernest Shepard illustrations in the Winnie the Pooh books. And who can resist Arnold Lobel's Frog and Toad? Lobel also illustrated a volume of children's poetry that my girls enjoy. <br /><br />What a fun topic! Thanks for posting!<br /><br />Rachel WRachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16598127564970664434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28843855.post-90746952546592995162010-06-23T21:09:01.383-04:002010-06-23T21:09:01.383-04:00Anna -- Paul Galdone!

I LOVE the pictures in that book...the berry pies, the bear, and the little smeary juicy face with the Grandparents at the end of the book!

There is one I am thinking about with a little girl- it goes through her daily activities with her and her teddy bear. Wil used to ask to be read "Baby" everyday when he was little. <br /><br />My favorites are Lois Elhert, Eric Carle, and Simms Taback. But there are many, many more.sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05439305584795731097noreply@blogger.com
