Elisabeth Brozowska

Two Wonder Books by Elisabeth Brozowska feature a little boy in a fanciful escape from reality. In The Animal's Party from 1962, Peter has a dream that he goes to the zoo after hours to party the night away. Johnny's experience in The Boy Who Wouldn't Eat His Breakfast from 1963, is more harrowing than Peter's. Johnny learns a lesson, when, as a result of not eating his breakfast, he shrinks to the size of an egg. Both books are wonderfully illustrated by the author. If you like these, there are some more samples at the Retro Kid and on my flickr page. Also, click here to see even more great work from Elisabeth Brozowska and others, including Bernice Myers.
