wonderful illustrations! the Meadow Gold one brings back memories... it used to be made here in Des Moines, Iowa and it is the ice creamI ate growing up!
Her illustrations look so familiar. I think I had books with her illustrations when I was little or something very similar. Too bad I couldn't read in english back then hahaha

These are so sweet. I also love Tomie dePaola. Especially the Strega Nona books.

I love her style and her ways with color! But my all time favorite has to be Quentin Blake.

These are really sweet. I really like Tove Jansson (the lady who did the Moomin Trolls comics).
