Flock by Gemma Koomen . #QOTD: Do you like picture books?📖 . I’ve been toying for a while with thinking of different ways to include picture books on my instagram. I feel they don’t receive as much attention in the bookstagram community as other genres, even though we love pretty covers so much! And also, I really love picture books, especially the illustrations! So I’ve decided to try out a new #WeeklyIllustratorHighlight to shine a spotlight on some of my favourite illustrators! If you have any illustrators you love, let me know so I can check them out! 🥰✨ . I picked my first feature based on one of the latest picture books I bought: Gemma Koomen! 🌳 I fell in love with her feed when I first came across it on Instagram, and I had been waiting for her online shop to open ever since, which happened just before Christmas. I managed to control myself and order one print and her debut picture book, Flock! Flock follows the story of Sylvia, a Tree Keeper who doesn’t like playing with the others. Then one day she befriends a baby bird called Scruff, and she just might find she enjoys having a friend. 🐦 . If I had to describe Gemma’s style in one word, it would have to be COZY, and the whole book screams that as well. I mean, who wouldn’t want to spend a day with ‘little people who stand as tall as your thumb and have heads the size of walnuts’? Swipe to see some highlights from the book!🌿 . . . #Flock #GemmaKoomen #illustrator #bookstagram #quartokids #franceslincoln #cozyvibes #cozyaesthetic #momstagram #kidlit #childrensbooks #childrensillustration #bookcover #bookcoverart #beautifulbooks #kidliterature https://www.instagram.com/p/B7hWfk_grpq/?igshid=10zsxtjhv49yy
