I have a weakness for picture books, although I don’t broadcast it too widely. Firstly because I don’t have a kid yet and therefor no reason to read them and secondly because people always tease me when I am reading (my friends aren’t really readers) and they wanna know if the pictures are nice.

Yeah, it’s funny about picture books. I didn’t start really reading them until I had a child and then I was blown away by them. 🙂
I love your blog! It’s fantastic! I’m going to have to check out The Night Circus.

Reblogged this on Reflections by Rebecca and commented:
These look marvelous! I plan to pick a few up and fall in love with picture books all over again. I would be remiss not to add my own series of picture books to this list — Silly Kitty & Funny Hunny!
