## Description

If you were creating a world of your own, what would it look like? Would you build your house out of brick – or out of jelly? Would it be on the ground or in a tree? Would your shops sell envelopes and sweets – or shoes for superheroes? Would you ride a train to town, or a dinosaur? Taking the reader on an extraordinary visual journey through her imaginative world, award-winning illustrator, Laura Carlin, inspires children to look , draw and make – first from life, and then from the imagination through sharing her own personal thought-processes and drawing techniques. Using the narrative of a day – from getting up in the morning, to going to bed at night – Laura shows children how she records every day things and events on paper, and then improves them through her wild and witty imagination – helping children form a visual manifesto of their own world, and enthusing them to find enjoyment and entertainment in drawing and creating with the most everyday objects.

Review: One of the best picture books I've come across - One of the best picture books I've come across. Both me and my 5 yr old boy loved it. My boy was full of ideas for his own world after reading each page, couldn't stop talking about them so I have to wait for quite a bit to be able to continue reading the next page. It is a small book with very few words but it took us two nights to finish reading it and many evenings for the excited little boy to finish drawing his own world!!! absolutely fantastic! I studies environmental science communication but often struggle to engage my own young child with the environment around us. This lovely book gently leads children to look at the world around them for inspiration. My little boy has since become interested on houses, people and things happening in our community and in general become much more aware of the world he lives in. highly recommended!
Review: Good condition book and arrived in good time - good birthday present for nephew - Good book which we were happy to receive having been to the exhibition of Laura's work locally in the Lakes. Beautifully illustrated and great message in the text too :-)
