Wind in the Willows is still a fast favorite. Somehow I only found out recently that Shepard had illustrated it.<br /><br />Even when he was in his twilight years he still had a stunning hand with the ink. The Eric Carle Museum had a small exhibit of his Winnie the Pooh pen &amp; ink drawings recently.Sweet Enemyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13317695262678872473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16631839.post-84180153982134716542009-08-04T14:16:33.058+10:002009-08-04T14:16:33.058+10:00wow! that&#39;s wonderful <br />thanks for sharejmanuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02219474411888509712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16631839.post-14083517269986172062009-07-17T11:18:55.783+10:002009-07-17T11:18:55.783+10:00I do love E.
