Oliver Jeffers.....

Wow. You are an amazing man! Ever since randomly stumbling across one of his children's book, The Great Paper Caper, I have been enthralled. While reading the book to Wee Man at bedtime I kept pondering what was behind the author. What made him tick. The book is hilarious and I keep noticing little things tucked away in the illustrations that I didn't the last 50 times I read it! His style is so unique and his illustrations interested me right off the hop. Well, turns out his books are critically acclaimed. Here is one of my favorite pages from the book we have.
So, I am on my way to Amazon.ca to buy more of his books. I think I am a little addicted to him at the moment. It is so hard to find children's books that are this artistically appealing to adults too. I mean, really, even the colophon page is beautiful to look at. Oh, and he's not so bad to look at himself! Really, Google some pics.........see, I told you! hehe.
