pocketful of posies

Posted on November 24, 2010 by thirdstoryies

This has to be one of my favorite nursery rhyme collections.  I just can’t stare long enough at these pages – the details are extraordinary, and the photographs are so clear the pages seem to be dimensional.  If I only had the skills and the time to put together something like this – I love the depictions of storefronts and gardens, and the artful ways multiple rhymes intertwine in the scenes on each page.  I’m going to do a bit of book cleaning in the sidebar and update what we’ve been reading.  Lots of good things going on right now, keeping us up way past bedtimes.  Since the book fair was this past weekend, I think it’s fair enough to spend a few days talking about books, and in between eating lots of good food.  I’ll post a few things and then take some time off to feast a bit… and get a few extra chapters of reading in over the holiday.
