At the moment I have been reading lots of Children's books from overseas. Here are 3 of my favourite overseas illustrators (at the moment).
If you get the chance to read, then "The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse" by Charlie Mackesy is the one book that you must read this year. It is a book about life, love, friendship and...cake.
Enjoy this delightful book. Cheers.
