About meI am a regional branch manager/librarian for our city's public library system. I love reading, cooking, movies, and collecting books.

About my libraryMy mother and I have been collecting children's books for years. I also collect cookbooks, mysteries, and books about China and adoption, among other topics. I also love Amish-themed fiction and apocalyptic and/or zombie fiction. All of the books listed in my collections are books I actually own.

Yes, I was surprised there aren't more copies. I added mine and they are both on the same work page now, and yes, I added an image, though I got it from a google search, and it looks a bit shaved off the top. I'll try to remember to bring mine to work next week where we have a good scanner.

I see you have some Harold Darling/Welleran Poltarnees books. I'm working on finding all of them.
Have you checked out the groups here that discuss illustrators? They're quiet, but some really good resources are mentioned.

Hi Chinatowne,
I see we share a love of childrens books and fine illustrators. I've been adding covers, and I found an error on one of your entries which is keeping it on the wrong author page. The book is "The Subject Was Children; The Art of Jessie Wilcox Smith" The author is Gene Mitchell, but you've got it as "Greg."

I'll be back by soon to rumage your shelves. I'll try not to make any messes.
Ruth
