Eric Carle

I brought some Eric Carle books from Borders the other day. The hungry Caterpillar is probably one of the most famous children's books of the 20th Century and the illustrations still as popular and timeless today as it was when it was first published in 1969.
His newer books combine his charming illustrations along with his own typography and pull out pages.
I couldn't help but fall in love with his work and he is an inspiration for my own work. His books are proof that books don't have to be tacky and monotonous to be appealing to children.
