Beautiful drawings, but it's only sad they're loosing their territory...
ReplyDeleteSome lovely, new-to-me polar bears here Laura. As they're polar bears, have a look at these

Came here by mere coincedence looking for illustrations of Ted Hughes children's books...especially for images of the different illustrations going with the older prints of "How the polar bear became" story or The illustrations "Under the North Star" (which in fact I have never had the opportunity to read)...
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed being here and I have fallen absolutely in love with The Little Polar Bear...
If ever you find more on the topic, please let me know
