Lovely Ladybird Books
Thought I'd share some more Ladybird Books from my (growing) collection.
Dick Whittington and his cat - a great favourite as you can see from its condition! Story retold by Vera Southgate and illustrated by Eric Winter. They were also responsible for the next book -another well-loved tale - Puss in Boots.
Big Animals - lots of information for children to enjoy.
Written and illustrated by John Leigh-Pemberton.
Road Sense - love the pictures in this - so dated (1977) now, but great to look at. Written by R Collingridge and illustrated by B H Robinson.
The Vikings - such a fabulous book just full of fascinating pictures and information. Written by Stephanie Bardon and illustrated by Richard Hook and Jon Davis.
Loved these book as a child. My children loved them and I still love them. They really can't be beaten for fabulous writing and illustrations.
These are my Five on Friday - come and have a look at some fabulous blogs.
Love, Liz

Amazing how one gets caught up in collecting something and before long it takes on a life of its own.
I am not familiar with these books . . . they look interesting, love the illustrations.
I have saved and collected many children books from my teaching days
Plus a few from my personal childhood days . . .
Happy Match Days . . .
Funny how such small things really stick far back in the mind.
I saw some new ladybird books just before Christmas. comedy ones. How it works - The Husband and the same about 'the wife'. I had a look through, giggled here and there, but no, didn't buy them. Just didn't have the same appeal! :O)
