ooh guess what?

OOH & guess WHAT?!?!?!??!

At Egg today I couldn’t resist getting this book that I hadn’t seen since I was a kid!!

Ed Emberley’s Drawing Book: Make a World!!!

I used to check this out at my elementary school’s library every single week over & over & over!! My friend Hilary & I pretty much had full dibs on this book. We would always draw little people. We drew little teeny worlds with little teeny characters (like the 1/2 circle family and the triangle family, too with little feet and all) and we also had these teeny little toys we played with too. Mine was a teeny elephant, I wonder what hers was again… I can’t recall. We’d also have contests to see who could write the very teeny tiniest alphabet.
