CHILDREN’S TREASURY ILLUSTRATIONS
Back in 1997, I was contacted by Random House, book publisher in Australia, who was hoping that I would promote the book The Random House Children’s Treasury – Fairy Tales, Nursery Rhymes & Nonsense Verse on my radio show Spectrum, broadcast on FM radio in Australia – which I did with an interview of someone connected to Random House, most likely the editor. It was a pleasure to discuss this beautifully color illustrated Children’s Treasury on air. (By the way, I am still broadcasting on community radio, check out https://johnweekstraveller.wixsite.com/musicmemorabilia/radio-shows )
Here are some illustrations from the book:
