I think you all know how much I love books! Well, here is the cover of my very first book—at least the first book I remember "reading" over and over again! Such a beautiful illustration!
Oh! I LOVE this! If I had it, I'm sure it would be my favorite, too! My favorite style of illustration--my mom's, too! Thanks for sharing this, Coralie!
I finally got over here to meet you. I have seen your comments on Sissies blog and I've always wanted to step over into your world. I am Jacqueline (the girl with the curl) from Once Upon a Fairyland which was my childhood home. I posted today on Storybook Homes. You might like to visit if you have time. I'll be back to you. Blessings from Washington. ~Jacqueline~
I remember having a Cinderella story book and she wore a similar style dress to that one on there and that is why I had the wedding gown I wore with the little bows on it.
Sorry I haven't been over here lately I have just been so busy even though I have been on holiday. I've been doing stuff for wedding stationery, researching my family tree, chores around the garden etc etc.
What a beautiful cover, and I bet the inside is just full of great illustrations! How nice that you still have it. I would love to see how you display all of your books. Can we have a peek sometime? Happy Pink Saturday, Carol
