OLIVER JEFFERS.

And if you haven’t heard of him or read any of his books, doesn’t matter what age you are, the Where Have You Been Hiding?
My latest favourite of his is:
The Incredible Book Eating Boy, is just filled with delicious morsels of booky yumminess. It appeals to my sense of bookishness and to the idea behind knowledge. Read it yourself, or to your little ones. I plan on giving this one as a Christmas gift to a lovely little boy I know.
Others that you may have seen or read are Lost and Found and Up and Down
About a boy and his Penguin friend. Too Delightful! Focusing on the idea of friendship, and I love love love them.
How to Catch a Star, is probably a well know favourite too.
Well, I am officially in love with his books, his words and his art. And if you know of any little people(or big ones for that matter) who you love to give books as gifts, I really recommend any of these, and the others that I haven’t mentioned here.
And if you want to, you can find more info about him, his art and his books on his website and on Facebook.
(and if you have read all of them, which is YOUR favorite?)
