My favorite Illustrator of all time is easily Dr. Seuss. Early on he taught me to read through his silly, fantastically imagined stories. I was drawn to his books because of his characteristic use of vibrant colors, inventive characters and genius use of rhymes that taught me more than just the ABCs. I never out grew his style, imagination, or brilliance. I am constantly inspired by his work to produce work of my own.
My favorite was always Hop on Pop. My dad never liked it much when I tried to make the book a reality!
ReplyDeleteMines was The Grinch that stole Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHop on Pop was the first book I ever read, followed by the Lorax. Dr. Seuss makes some great children's books.
ReplyDeleteoh and some useless information: In Canada they pronounce it Dr. Zeus. Wtf?
