She looks like my kids’ lego figures except for the lacy drawers. 1918 sure pre-dates legos, though. The fish and birds are lego-like, too! How fascinating. I wonder if the lego designers read this book when they were kids. 🙂
They are nice wooden toy shapes. I love the illustrations in this book, but I didn’t think others liked them as much as I do, but today “The Funny Little Girl” had a few fans! Unfortunately, the text is really silly to the point of being annoying – oh well, the illustrations are a delight!
I liked your 3 LIttle Pigs “modern” fairy tale – you put so many details into it and no eating the wolf!!!!!

Glad you liked it. I had fun with it. In the end, the wolf didn’t prosper, but I decided it wasn’t friendly to eat a human, even if he is a shapeshifter. I left in the suspense about whether they would eat him.
I wanted to inform you that I nominated you for the Super Sweet Blogging Award.
