pick#LetsTravelAugust Day 21: Reminiscent of Harold and the Purple Crayon by Crockett Johnson, Mina‘s White Canvas by Hyeon-Ju Lee, Jeremy Draws A Monster by Peter McCarty and even the Journey series by Aaron Becker - this is a touching story of a young girl who has given birth to the birds and beasts of her #imagination. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-kiu
I love seeing these pictures every time I use my phone.
The left one is a picture I took myself of all my most favorite/comfort reads, and it‘s my lock screen.
The right is an #etsy print I bought & then took a screenshot of, and it‘s my home screen.
I‘d love to see any literary/bookish computer or phone screens you have!
pickI highly recommend this #picturebook because:
🌷#Wordless
🌷Told in a series of panels like a #graphicnovel
🌷Cheerful, whimsical paper collage art
🌷Imaginative adventure story
🌷Can be appreciated by all ages
🌷Reassuring & relatable for any child who has experienced moving to a new place.
I love to see so much care in the design of picture books. The story in this one starts right on the endpaper, with foreshadowing that something will happen under a layer of wallpaper. The half-title page shows a moving-truck being loaded. The title page shows its arrival at the new house, and the following 2-page spread includes a panel of the newly-transplanted girl shyly peeping out her window at other children next door.
Look UK Littens what you can get in Wilkinson's

You see before you...my work computer‘s new wallpaper!
It‘s dandy, no?
Just can‘t figure out which store this is... 🤔
Any Littens know???
(Totally non- book related, sorry!)
@saresmoore I'll definitely share a before/after once it's complete! But I thought this was cool. When your kitchen is in the party of the house that dates to the 1870s, you find some funky wallpapers when you start demo-ing!
pick5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a fabulous wordless graphic novel. Yes, a graphic novel, with amazing paper cut graphics. It tells the story of the new girl in town how goes on a grand adventure through the wall paper in her room. It‘s amazing. Pick it up, you and your kids won‘t be disappointed.
