Benjamin Lacombe’s Il etait une fois (Once Upon A Time)

August 3, 2012 by Valarie Leave a Comment

I have long been a fan of Benjamin Lacombe so I was thrilled to find out about his latest project.

Benjamin has something really incredible coming out this fall for iPad but until then follow the white rabbit into the world of storybooks. Il etait une fois means Once Upon A Time in French.

Eight classic tales evoked by a double-page ingenious mechanism, in a wonderful book that combines technical prowess and artistic talent. Find characters from the famous stories of Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty, Bluebeard, Peter, Pan, Little Red Riding Hood, Madame Butterfly, and Thumbelina.

I knew you’d enjoy it 😉

Don’t forget to check out our new blog to the Audrey Press line-up. The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and The Chocolate Factory is now available on iTunes and we couldn’t be more excited! Our “Charlie blog” is filled with inside sneak peeks, back history about the project, and fun facts abou author Roald Dahl. Please stop by and say “hi!”

Gorgeous descriptions of New Orleans paired with a brilliant take on vampire lore, all written with a truly authentic teen voice add up to one thing: Hannah Rials’s writing is breathing new life into the paranormal YA world.

I always suspected that certain picture books give dragons an undeserved bad rap. This delightful picture book clears up dangerous and misleading misconceptions about dragons. Dragons, as it turns out, are gentle creatives that love sweets, hoard books, and, most certainly, are real! I'm getting the word out to my kids!

Visually, this book is GORGEOUS! A Year in the Secret Garden is a treasure trove of activities, crafts, games, recipes and information all related to the classic children’s book, The Secret Garden, bringing to life this wonderful book to a new generation of readers. I cannot recommend this beautifully illustrated and detailed, information-packed book highly enough to parents, homeschoolers, teachers, and librarians. Ages 5+

What a beautiful book! The Waldorf Homeschool Handbook has given me much food for thought by reading it. I love it and even though we have already been homeschooling for almost 8 years now with children in highschool, it has been wonderfully refreshing and has encouraged me to relook at how we go about our homeschooling journey.
