Cuteable finds

I received this book as a present and have just finished reading it to my daughter. The story has good repeating elements which is perfect for small children and the ending involves fly finding a bed somewhere you wouldn’t expect that will have children giggling for a long time. It’s by Gordon Green, the illustrations are by Sholto Walker and it can be found here. I wouldn’t normally review books on Cuteable but this is by a man who had the idea for the book and went as far to set up his own publishing company to get it published – a drive for getting your work out there that I’m sure many crafters will recognise!

Penelope the rabbit is the work of Effunia and I think she is very cute. I like the muted colours although if you prefer stronger colours then check out the shop for bright rabbits!

Now I’m sure that dinosaurs weren’t this cute and spotty when they walked the Earth like this one from Area Thrifty One!

I really like the sentiment behind this print from Vol 25. And as the print is an open edition you don’t have to worry about not getting one!
