Dog Food and Baby Food by Saxton Freymann and Joost Elffers are charming board book versions of their whimsical, magical vegetable characters. From ducklings made of potatoes to banana giraffes to brocolli poodles, readers will be welcomed into a bright colored world of puns. Parents can get very tired of overly sweet board books that lack a real sense of humor. Point them to these books, though I don't think it will be necessary. One look at the covers of these books will have them in the hands of both parents and children in seconds. Make sure you stock the earlier books by these talented authors as well, there will be requests!

Hello Tasha,
Today I have just started my first blog.
I am a three-dimensional object illustrator born in the UK.
My illustrations have been published as a student winner in the past in the USA & UK, however I have not yet been published as a professional character designer.
Saxton Freyman is among one artist who inspires my creations. (Please view my previous illustrations on my website & blog soon, what do you think?) www.deantoucans3dworld.co.uk
Please forward my website and blog to people who might be interested in contacting me to create designs for them or if they just like to view my quirky characters.
Please any feedback would be great.
Best Regards
Dean Williams
