What I’m Doing at Kirkus This Week,
Plus What I Did Last Week, Featuring Uri Shulevitz

h1 December 13th, 2013 by jules



 

This morning over at Kirkus, I write about Nina Laden’s Once Upon a Memory, illustrated by Renata Liwska. That link is here.

Last week, I wrote here about Uri Shulevitz’s Dusk, so I’m sharing some art from it today.

Enjoy.

  2. Can’t wait to get my hands on this one! Love how the boy and dog are the same characters as in his book “Snow”.

  3. Saw this beautiful book when it was first released 😀 I’ve been an admirer of Uri Shulevitz for almost 20 years now, having read his well-known book for children’s book illustrators WRITING WITH PICTURES. It’s fantastic!
