I also love the illustrations in my version, which are done in a claymation putty style. My son and I completely love both the text and the illustrations, but it's so neat to see that it was published earlier with a different set of lovely artwork.Hanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16292032945649981019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-73573023963871473162011-03-15T05:04:57.197-05:002011-03-15T05:04:57.197-05:00Really nice water media drawings of birds, very na...Really nice water media drawings of birds, very naturalistic but also really successful as illustrations from their fanciful settings.<br /><br />I'm sending you an email to webe@soon Please read!DBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05383873367539384901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-19737924336800019822011-03-10T22:01:30.915-06:002011-03-10T22:01:30.915-06:00It looks like the only other juvenile that Julio d...It looks like the only other juvenile that Julio de Diego illustrated was "A Stranger in the Spanish Village" by Anita MacRae Feagles (1964).

If I could, I would get lost in your collection, I should think. However do you choose which to let go, and which to keep? Oh, it makes my heart ache to get rid of a book. I dream of having an extensive and most amazing library of my own someday. I have yet to build up my Italian book selection, but, once i get on that it should be interesting. Thanks for sharing. really, truly. and, the stories behind the scenes are ALWAYS intriguing to me. I am a fan of Google as Wikipedia has come in handy more times than I can mention for just such searches. Have a wonderful eventing.dayseasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12968487732883050716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-33858591984707242622011-03-09T10:13:46.176-06:002011-03-09T10:13:46.176-06:00You always give me food for thought!You always give me food for thought!Queen of the Nookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13649474985512298125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-55407544925624371302011-03-09T09:50:10.473-06:002011-03-09T09:50:10.473-06:00The books is beautiful thanks for sharing.The books is beautiful thanks for sharing.Luisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16772017428252497318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-25709060125408457192011-03-09T09:20:45.743-06:002011-03-09T09:20:45.743-06:00I know... that top one with the birch trees kills ...I know... that top one with the birch trees kills me!Burgin Streetmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473712188879858952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-70155459680005570942011-03-09T09:15:41.414-06:002011-03-09T09:15:41.414-06:00I love it when you post bird books--and hate it, t...I love it when you post bird books--and hate it, too, because I know I'm going to have to go and buy another one!
