The character is a hoot and Judy Schachner brings him to life with language and rhyme that just rolls off the tongue with a fun Spanish accent. I chose Cirque de Olé, but I could have chosen any Skippyjon Jones book here, because they’re all a blast to read. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1549401119099-46YPVLRWRWF857SCW1X5/61Bzcs1JRkL._SX497_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - 5 Picture Books I’m Happy to Read Over and Over - I Was So Mad by Mercer Mayer I loved Mercer Mayer’s critter books as a kid, and I still love them as a dad. He’s an adorable mess in all of them, but admittedly, some of the books are more fun to read than others. The one I enjoy most is I Was So Mad. The pacing and the set up for that repeated title line is just perfect. I slip into character so easily with this book it almost makes me think I might need to talk with a counselor or something. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1549401152160-YPJZP1J3NXE2YH1YR4E2/51E%2BwH9WycL.jpg Inside FSP blog - 5 Picture Books I’m Happy to Read Over and Over - Score One for the Sloths by Helen Lester First, I have to admit: Sloths are my favorite. So I can’t claim complete objectivity on this one. But with that said, reading in a slow sloth voice is also a lot of fun. When I saw the movie Zootopia—and the scene with the sloth who works at the DMV—I realized I wasn’t taking my performance of this book far enough. After that my daughter would beg me to speed up after the first couple pages. It was fun for me… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1549401193327-ZWVGSSJIBCH24JNJLM5X/519DeuOwywL._SX416_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - 5 Picture Books I’m Happy to Read Over and Over - The Napping House by Audrey Wood What makes this one fun to read isn’t the character voices, it’s the repetition. If you’ve read this book before, you know what I’m talking about. It may or may not be your thing, but I dig how the sleeping characters stack up in the reading (and in the bed). The granny on the bed, the kid on the granny, the dog on the kid, the cat on the dog and so on, until the bed collapses. Oops, spoiler alert. Fortunately, it’s fun even when you know what’s going to happen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1549401228554-Y1S237YS397QGKQZ24C0/613T5adBBIL._SX408_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - 5 Picture Books I’m Happy to Read Over and Over - The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry This book pushes me to the edge of my ability to read in recognizably different voices. And it’s got a cool environmental message. A guy is about to cut down an enormous Kapok tree in the rainforest, but lays down for a nap first. One by one, the different creatures of the forest whisper in his ear all the reasons he should leave the tree alone. I’m just going to say it, I do a pretty cool jaguar voice. Oh, and there’s a sloth, too! https://fairshakepress.com/new-blog/2018/10/25/an-illustrators-favorite-childrens-books-part-1-1 monthly 0.5 2019-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540473426478-ZZVNE0OV34U5ETGY92JJ/6+Recommendations.png Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540471907276-B17IAMVKI4K4GU49W13S/61LrkygKhBL.jpg Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 - The Flower Man: A Wordless Picture Book by Mark Ludy This is such a great story, because it doesn't require any words. The entire story is told with the power of the amazing and poignant illustrations. I love the art style—perfect mix of cartoony and dreary realism. There is so much action and narrative elements packed into each page of this book that my daughter and I can stare at it for hours and each focus on something different. Each "read" is a new adventure! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540472250145-EQP39T4FKARXY0E41KAT/51B%2BoeHxqDL._SX349_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 - This Is Sadie by Sara O'Leary and Julie Morstad This book reminds me that we all need to aspire to be better than what we are, but we also need to learn how to be happy as ourselves. I value imagination very highly, and I think this book does, too. This book transports me to a magical place without actually telling a narrative story. And the writing is very beautiful—kind of like a retelling of Calvin & Hobbes, but with more of the magic and less of the humor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540472330177-M9K3QG5BHF9H55TP6JLB/61BorQ5sGcL._SX475_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 - Instructions by Neil Gaiman I think I read this as a short story before it was illustrated. But I love that it is illustrated now, because I can read it to my children. This might have been the guidebook for my early childhood. I pretty much lived in my imagination, and the real world was just a thing I had to bother with, so people would stop pestering me. (Read carefully, kids. These are all the instructions you need!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540472371923-UGHGJ54WWHX08G2V64OP/51oks%2BsU2sL._SY404_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 - Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney First of all, the illustrations and feel of this book remind me so much of my early childhood in New England, before we moved to Georgia. I love the pacing and the lessons in this book, as well as the sweeping, timeless narrative. What a great set of goals for any human to live by: 1. Travel the world. 2. Live by the sea. 3. Do something to make the world more beautiful. I think if I manage to accomplish all three of these, I will be able to say I've done OK in this life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540472406786-AFGN191CUWFKNGBRSAWB/41E5wgbGLRL._SX342_.jpg Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 - The Dark by Lemony Snicket and Jon Klassen I can relate to this book, because as an over-imaginative child, I used to be TERRIFIED of the dark. The illustration style of this book is interesting because they use SOLID BLACK (which is also my favorite color). You wouldn't think it would work for a children's book, but it does. Good humor in this book, too—just the right blend of creepy and funny. It’s a good lesson for any child who is having a hard time being alone in the dark. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1540472449310-5PMJZMB42XOJ5BQKDLJN/61TikH1otyL._SY446_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Inside FSP blog - An Illustrator’s Favorite Children’s Books, Part 1 - Journey by Aaron Becker This is another wordless book. (I figure it’s OK for me to have two, since I'm the illustrator.) I LOVE the pictures in this book. Beautiful, breathtaking watercolors on each page. The Wizard-of-Oz-like transition from drab black and white into full color is perfectly executed. And the use of the drippy, red color ties the whole thing together beautifully. I would love to someday be able to create a book like this one. https://fairshakepress.com/new-blog/2018/9/20/14-interactive-childrens-books-that-are-not-stories monthly 0.5 2018-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1537579868148-YKWYGEWYXJ0RMUYYO0E4/image-asset.png Inside FSP blog - 14 Interactive Children’s Books that are NOT Stories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1537490824086-02WJ909H1BC2UXSNC1Q1/02-03+text%2C+mobile.jpg Inside FSP blog - 14 Interactive Children’s Books that are NOT Stories https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1537490829716-QIJ9Z1LCQJTJAJE2U79P/04-05+South+Pole.jpg Inside FSP blog - 14 Interactive Children’s Books that are NOT Stories https://fairshakepress.com/new-blog/2018/9/18/our-new-childrens-book-is-not-a-story monthly 0.5 2018-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1537580220638-KSWDPUHHFJN36DGHP1A8/Does+your+kid+%282%29.png Inside FSP blog - Our New Children’s Book is NOT a Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ae2392a3917eef6a6aeefe2/1537287387554-1BNTP0V0TIAPM0V63QJI/IMG_0165.jpg Inside FSP blog - Our New Children’s Book is NOT a Story Check out this cute picture of my wife and daughter dressed up for a Dr. Seuss-themed Halloween party a few years ago.
