A very entertaining post, thanks, children's books have a huge influence on a lot of things - art sensibilities, expectations of the lifestyles lived by wildlife just being two.
I was just telling a friend if they don’t have their job in Richard scarry’s busy, busy world I don’t really understand what it is they do. Not really. Teachers and photographers yes, computer programmers, no. What does my brother do? Something with computers, I don’t know, he’s told me five times but if a giant pig in a jaunty hat can’t do it I can’t remember.
You’re so right about the influence of children’s books on our art sensibilities! Bless my mom for checking out a boatload at the library every week of my childhood.
