oooh i want to read this book! looks like it won’t be published in the us for a couple weeks, though, and i don’t like the us cover nearly as much. this is a really neat idea, using the colors of the tube lines. maybe the uk edition will pop up on ebay? (info here & here)

jonquille:

Penguin Culinary Classics illustrated by  Coralie Bickford-Smith (order here).

i am just going to assume that at least one of these books is by a british author, because these are too beautiful not to reblog.

I bought this cute little board book for my cousin’s second birthday.

We have this at work…and I kind of want to buy it for myself. Would that be so wrong?

Best baby book ever! If I ever have kids, I’m buying these board books for them!

-Annie

a friend of mine has one of these for her baby girl, and it is the cutest thing i’ve ever seen. it’s a counting book, and the best part is #10: “10 thousand pounds a year”! too funny! yes indeed, my daughters shall be raised on austen from birth.

It was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort. It had a perfectly round door like a porthole, painted green, with a shiny yellow brass knob in the exact middle.
