A Wish This Big

Ingrid 's lovely storybook is a true Capetonian one - join us this Saturday 11am at The Book Lounge in Roeland street for the launch . I promise to bring some original illustrations along :)

A Wish This Big is published by Tafelberg and available at most Exclusive Books and Kalahari .
Ook beskikbaar in Afrikaans: Soos 'n wens, so groot 


Polestar





I've been digging through storage boxes again and found several volumes of Cassell's Popular Educator. I can't find a publication date but from what I can tell its late 19th century. The engraved illustrations are beautiful; the chapters on 'ethnology' exceptionally racist. My favourite pages are those flagged by my grandmother: Lessons in Penmanship and Lessons in Music.


while i'm on the topic of cold climates...

Here's another polar bear. He belongs to Miche , but his family's for sale at Montebello gallery in Newlands avenue this weekend.
