For the love of books!



What is it about children's book writers and illustrators that makes us still want to read them as adults? Is it still knowing the magic of childhood, or still growing up? Some of my friends say that a good story with illustrations makes them want to inhabit the book, walk around the images and make friends with the characters. Whatever the reason, they captivate our imagination.
The photos are of my daughter who loved school so much she became a primary school teacher. I know she was one of my best teachers, in so many ways.
