I discovered this book today and promptly bought it and brought it home to read to my son. It's a simple story told beautifully and makes me feel good. Really lovely; go get a copy!!!
3 color illustration done with printmaking--probably linocuts. It's what I'd like to do with rubberstamps...or should I get into printmaking? Kazuno Kohara doesn't have a website so I can't say for sure what she did. It's just wonderful illustrations and it's totally inspired me. I haven't bought a kid's book in a longggggggggggggg time. And she's under the Macmillian umbrella like me--good company.
The book's cover art looks wonderful.
I've wondered before (when I tried and gave up on traditional talk therapy - divorce from first marriage), if art therapy would be a better alternative for those who are more visually and physically attuned. It seems more healing somehow to me. I hope it works out well for you.
Sending many thoughts, prayers and hugs your way.
