#BookIllustrationOfTheDay is by @CAnganuzzi for "Violet's Tempest" by @MrEagletonIan (2021). I love this image of Violet, nervously facing an audience. That'll be me soon, as events start to return. I hope I overcome my fears, like Violet. Lovely tender story & illustrations.
#BookIllustrationOfTheDay is by the @oharasisters for “Frindleswylde” (2021), continues my Wintry theme, with this sweeping, exquisite new fairy tale, with charmingly drawn and imagined characters and scenes. A hauntingly perfect read in the colder months of the year.

#BookIllustrationOfTheDay is by @nicolakillen for “Ollie’s Christmas Reindeer” (2016), such a lovely Christmas story, and I especially like the drama of the limited palette. Oh, and silver sparkles, too. Oh, and cut through pages! Gorgeous. #ChristmasCountdown #Advent
#BookIllustrationOfTheDay My #Christmas #Advent series begins with Gabrielle Vincent for "Ernest & Celestine" (1982). Part of an adorable series, beautifully drawn in deft sepia line, about the unlikely friendship between a bear and a mouse. Tender, loving and heartfelt.
