Issued without a dust jacket. -- The book tells the story of 22 illustrators whose skill and creativity have enriched and expanded the world of children's literature. Their illustrations open up the texts with power and sincerity. Each in their own way, these illustrators also colour outside the lines of the story, using a dash of humour, an anecdote or a surprising picture. These are Flemish illustrators who are looking for a visual language that appeals to both adults and children. The book investigates the development of each illustrator's work and shows how to read their illustrations. Every shape, every colour and every line has a meaning. The better you are at deciphering that meaning, the richer the story becomes and the more pleasure you find in reading it. -- Contents: A Picture Says a Thousand Words; How It All Began; Learning to Look; Lieve Baeten; Annemie Berebrouckx; An Candaele; Johan Devrome; Sebastiaan Van Doninck; Guido van Genechten; Ingrid Godon; Marjolein Pottie; Geert Vervaeke; Anne Westerduin; A Question of Concentrated Energy; Kristien Aertssen; Sabien Clement; Carll Cneut; Erika Cotteleer; Gerda Dendooven; Goele Dewanckel; Pieter Gaudesaboos; Tom Schamp; André Sollie; Isabelle Vandenabeele; Klaas Verplancke; Paul Verrept; Looking Becomes Seeing; Secondary Literature.
