Australian Illustrations

Found some beautiful children's book illustrations on Bibliodyssey today... Thought I'd share some of my favorites.

These two are by Australian illustrator Margaret Clark, and were produced in the mid-1920's. I love the moon peeking over the horizon and smiling at the unseeing sprites below!

Florist Shop, Margaret Clark


The Spirit of Mischief, Margaret Clark


Makes me want to take a trip to the antique book store in Scottsdale and see what tresures they have!
