The Memory Book

0/5 ( ratings)

A celebrated children's illustrator delves into his childhood memories in this astonishingly personal, illustrated look at an artist's young mind. A record of the artist's first seven years of life in London before his family moved to Australia, the book's two-page spreads are each devoted to a specific memory of the city, as though he were compiling a collection of memories by which to remember his home country. Each hauntingly illustrated memory is accompanied by a short bit of simplistic text that captures the essence of child-speak. Capturing the entire spectrum of a child's emotions, from extreme joy to profound loneliness and fear, this intensely personal autobiographical work invites readers to explore and reconnect with the pulse of their own childhood.
