'Lost and Found'...Thanks, Natasha and Chox.<br />'Lost and Found' is a big favourite with us as well.<br /><br />As always, Chox, your ability to find the most amazing books in used book stores leaves me speechless.. and very green eyed.wordjunkienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-31664892623716971432012-02-21T23:16:39.657-08:002012-02-21T23:16:39.657-08:00Oh and 'Lost and Found' is my most favouri...Oh and 'Lost and Found' is my most favourite book ever. The illustrations are so minimal but convey everything. Remember getting all misty-eyed when I found it buried under a pile of books in a used book shop and stood there reading it :)Choxboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03741540918529448553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-63235191387663690352012-02-21T22:59:24.838-08:002012-02-21T22:59:24.838-08:00Jeffers totally rocks, and great review WJ.

One of my absolute favourite authors - and yes I am one of those adults who cannot ever part with "my" Oliver Jeffers even when the kids move on to more advanced reading. Completely identify with all that you said on the illustrations, the word interplay and the heart of each story. Brilliant books. Must read for every kid!Natasha Sharmanoreply@blogger.com
