- About My Library
My physical collection has a large amount of children's literature, and to a lesser extent, some YA. My focus is on classics. I collect based on content and physical qualities. Books are art! Interior illustrations, cover art, and overall design are reasons why I love collecting. I often tell people I like books more than I like reading, and this is why. I'm especially interested in the horror and suspense genres...right now I am working on completing my collection of John Bellairs books with illustrations by Edward Gorey.
I also collect books about the history of Disney Animation, focusing on the Golden, Wartime, Silver, Bronze, and Renaissance eras. Although most of the books in this collection are focused on the development art and animation techniques, I include all aspects of early Disney history, including Walt's life story and the history of the parks.- About Me
I'm a graduate student at Simmons School of Library and Information Science ~ I'm also an artist, book collector, cat whisperer, and aspiring writer. I especially love children's literature.
