Some days the world makes you wish you could fly away to Neverland...

While I don't have a room of my own to write in, I did find the perfect spot under some ancient tree where I could weave my words in peace - and even have them illustrated by a squirrel and proofread by hares.

Artist Anton Pieck was born #OTD in 1895. Along with illustrating books & fairy tales, Pieck designed the Dutch fairy tale theme park De Efteling, which contains elements of myths, folklore & fairy tales.
Happy birthday to one of my favorite artists, Garth Williams. So many of my favorite books from childhood were illustrated by him. He used his illustrations to try to "awaken something of importance ... humor, responsibility, respect for others, interest in the world at large!"
I think we could all use a fairy to ease our hearts in this world.

Wouldn't it be truly wonderful to be neighbors with some of the lovely and magical folk on Twitter? Who would you want to be neighbors with?
