Every panel in this book could be a painting in its own right. Wonderful use of the medium, rich colours and textures. William Stobbs (1914-2000) is one of my favourite picture book artists - I've got one more book by him which I'll be featuring soon on this blog (see also "Jack And The Beanstalk" http://picturesfromanoldbook.blogspot.co.uk/2011/12/jack-and-beanstalk-written-by-walter-de.html ). There is an extensive collection of Stobbs' children's books on the Fishink blog: https://fishinkblog.com/2013/02/13/william-stobbs-a-childrens-illustrator/
