I realized that I'm stopping and looking at children's books a lot when I go into a book store. It's interesting that I have more appetite for them now, than I had when I was little. I wonder why?... The main thing that I'm interested in is the illustrations. (The story is also important, well actually it's the most important, but you can not read a whole book in the store, and sometimes I don't have time to read anything in particular about the book; sometimes you remain with a picture in your mind, with the cover of a book, or just some illustrations that you "sketched up" when you opened a book and you paged through it.)
So here are some cute things that caught my eye:                                                                                                                                

This is a special edition of The Little Prince that appeared at RAO. You'll find the story, with the original illustrations, and if I remember it well, there is a part about the author, I hope is something about how the whole thing started or some "behind the scene" stuff. I'm really curious, so I think I will buy it.

Sometimes is interesting to see how the characters looked before Disney. Don't get me wrong, I like Disney, but I also like to see from where the whole thing started, from where did everything evolve, and here we can enjoy another book with the authentic drawings of the writer.
Winnie the Pooh from Arthur.

I saw Miss Potter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMDMD7q101I), but never got the opportunity to actually read a Peter Bunny tale. I hope one day I will get there, until then I'll just say that the illustrations are very cute.

Vellant has a lot of beautiful and well designed books.
Now this is a cute and funny one, that has collage type of illustrations which I enjoyed.

This one is interesting. Beside the beautiful illustrations done by young romanian illustrator, Madalina Andronic, we have stories and recipes also.






That's all for today ... I think.
Good night
