Isn’t this little guy gorgeous? It’s an image from the picture book Harry and Horsie due in Australia in November.
I’m going to get it for Ned for Christmas. You can have a little peek inside on the Harper Collins US website and it is one of the most gorgeous things I’ve ever seen. The illustrations are so funky, I’m thinking I’d like to frame them up for Ned’s walls.
Harry is a little boy who undertakes a deep space adventure with his trusty toy Horsie, who he never goes anywhere without.
Ned is so keen on Space and stars and also has his pal ‘Hutchy’ who goes everywhere with him so this book sounds quite appropriate.
The Harry and Horsie story started out as a homemade gift from a nanny, Katie Van Camp for a little boy called Harry who is actually the son of David Letterman. Have a look at the gorgeous website for the book here.
If you know a 2 to 5 year old Harry, this just has to be the perfect gift!
What a wonderful looking book – and just what I’ve been looking for, to stave off my three-year-old’s premature (I think!) desire for all things Spiderman. If can can just last out until November… Thanks for the heads up.
This is a great one! I guess I’m lucky in that it’s already been published in the U.S.! I loved the illustrations and the humor.
Also, a random sidenote: the author is (or was) David Letterman’s au pair, and the Henry of the story is based on Letterman’s son Henry.
I love the look of this one – I want it!
