Cricket magazine covers might be at the very root of why illustration has always been so important to me, and I love that I get to read Babybug to my son several times a week (or every day). While I tend to stare at the pictures, my son focuses on the words and rhythm of each poem, and he especially favors the nonsensical alphabet poems by Edward Lear. Today I cut out my own idea to the letter 'A' in Lear's alphabet. I believe this little ant needs a house, but its a start.
