We love a picture book and a great illustrator is a wonderful thing. There are none so wonderful as our Illustrator of the Month in March – Jane Hissey.

jane hissey

Creator of the well-loved Old Bear Stories, art teacher Jane has just released a fabulous new picture book, a MEGA Book of the Month and we think it will become a classic for all nurseries. Ruby Blue and Blanket is as wonderfully illustrated book about characters in a game of ‘dressing-up’: but how to choose the right costume?
