This is Edith. She's moving into a new room.
These are Edith's favourite toys. She's found a special place for each of them in her new room.
I really like her crochet bedspread - I would really like one of these and am not anywhere near good enough at crochet to make one...
Thankfully all Edith's toys love her new room, and they make a banner to tell her!
I loved Lisa Stickey's first picture book - Handstand - a counting book. She combines her beautifully simple pencil drawings with some collage pieces (like the crochet bedspread that I love). The text is wonderfully created to look like Edith has written this herself, and is presented on "lined paper" for great effect. This will be a big hit. And I think Lisa Stickey is going to become a classic name in picture book illustrating.
[Thanks to the publishers Pavilion for sending me my new room]
