  1. Pippi Langstrumpf

  2. David Cameron, but just for two seconds, so I could give myself a slap.

    Kind of like in the “You’ve been Tangoed” ad.

  3. it seems appropriate that the person who wrote “ramona quimby” actually has a zit on her. :P

  4. I love that you can tell which one is Oliver himself just from the handwriting. And what a perfect answer. And I’d be Matilda, by the way.

  5. Pierre! (from Pierre: A Cautionary Tale in Five Chapters & a Prologue.

  10. Wow, Oliver Jeffers! :D I love his books! I gave “The Incredible Book-Eating Boy” as a gift to my godchild and she loved it too! I wish I was there! :)

  11. I like the “Ramona Quimby” handwriting.

  12. Oh – Barbamama is such as great idea! You would never have transportation problems ever again (can you tell I come from a part of the world where we have been affected by the Icelandic ash-cloud?:-))

  13. i’m absolutely gutted that i missed this! i so love oliver jeffers’ books. i have gifted ‘lost and found’ to every child i know…it’s a perfect story and the illustration is imaginative and beautiful. but thanks so much for featuring such a talented artist and writer. glad to know that his prints are for sale too.

    p.s. and i can’t believe he lives in bk!

  14. aww Little prince, kudos Daniel!

  15. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation however I in finding this matter to be really something that I feel I would by no means understand. It kind of feels too complicated and very extensive for me. I am looking forward in your next put up, I will try to get the grasp of it!
