Down the Rabbit Hole – Cheese

A series worth rereading – again
You might have read my post back in July about A.J. Lancaster’s Stariel series. (You didn’t read it?! Then click here). I still love this series, and when I found out at the end of the last book that one of my favorite characters was getting his own book, I couldn’t wait to read it. …

The bold pen and ink drawings, the intricate block prints, for me, they are part of what makes those classic tales so compelling. When I saw fellow author and artist Anne Nydam’s block …
