Big Rabbit's Bad Mood - Delphine Durand

One of the best children's book illustrators working in French, Delphine Durrand has illustrated this picture book for Chronicle Books. Durrands characterization is fantastic especially as she's able to create great characters from simple shapes and blobs.

I hadn't seen her illustrations before, but they're great!! Remind me of Marc Boutavant, a little.

Wow, this book looks gorgeous! I always really appreciate it that you show lots of illustrations from a book. It makes me much more likely to actually purchase the book as I'm more confident my kids (as well as me) will enjoy it.

Yeah, this is so beautiful! Her characters in this book do remind me of Marc Boutavant's a little. Beetle Boy is another brilliant one of hers. I love this blog so much, it's fantastic!

Hello - I have just come across your blog and I think I have spent about 2 hours loving pretty much everything you have posted, and I have only made it to post 18! I love the combination of vintage illustrator's work and the latest picture book releases that can be found here - very inspiring. Great blog!
