  1. Fantastiskt bra bok för aspirerande barnboksillust
    -, 26 januari 2021

    En mycket bra bok som tar upp alla möjliga aspekter av att illustrera för barn. Olika medier, karaktärsutveckling, äldre barn, icke-fiktion, typografi m.m. Med många exempel på illustrationer för att tydliggöra poängen i texten. Dock är den på engelska, så det är bra om man förstår att läsa medelavancerad engelska åtminstone. Nivå-exempel från boken: "the 1950s and 1960s saw a flurry of more expressive and painterly illustration facilitated by further improvements in printing technology." Läs hela recensionen
