Children's Books

I love children's books with beautiful illustrations. I don't think I could ever grow out of them. There are many that I have seen recently and loved but I wanted to make a list of the ones from my childhood that have stuck with me.

Catkin
My all time favourite. I was heartbroken when I lost my copy and I finally decided to buy a new one this year.

More on PJ Lynch to come in one of my "Artists Who Inspire Me" posts.

The Balloon Tree
I don't even remember the story of this one but it has a special place in my heart because I had a dress that was just like the princess's dress so I called it my balloon tree princess dress.


The Twelve Dancing Princesses
How could you not love these illustrations? So magical.
