About the author
Kitty Crowther
71 books52 followersb. 1970
Kitty Crowther developed a love for books in early childhood, due in part to the fact that she was born with a hearing defect that delayed her speaking until the age of four. Her dossier provides this comment on her work: "Kitty's style speaks for itself. A simple, pure line, a light stroke that creates movement, that traces emotion, that touches the heart. Characters are drawn with a few, clear pen strokes and are revealed subtly. 'I'm fascinated by movement, the line that trembles, that is agitated, hard, soft.' This young woman is not interested in reproducing reality. She is concerned much more with reinventing experience. As she searches for meaning and for accuracy, she does not allow herself to be distracted by the gaze of others. 'I am not a fan of drawing only after painstaking sketching. I prefer to draw a gesture or an attitude that I recall from memory. I trust my visual memory. I try to be true to myself. Everything that I put in my books comes from experiences that have touched me profoundly. I try to recreate this special energy as closely as possible because it is beautiful. Restoring things because they are pretty does not have meaning for me. I live what I draw."

Väldigt kortfattad och enkel bilderbok med knappt någon mening men ändå så förstående. Alla gosedjuren eller varelserna samlas i ett rum och undrar om det är dags? Dags för vaddå undrar man? Jo på att pojken ska komma och alla myser tillsammans under täcket och ska sova!
Gillar hur dem väntar på honom och som läsare förstår man inte riktigt, det blir något av en spänning men sedan förstår man! Pojken har säkert varit på dagis och gosedjuren eller leksakerna hemma har väntat tills de blir trötta på att han ska komma hem.

Dit is een boek voor de aller-allerkleinsten en heeft daarom wel heel weinig om het lijf. Iedere bladzijde komt er een knuffel die vraagt of iemand al gekomen is, waarop steeds dezelfde zegt dat dat nog niet het geval is. Het eindigt ook niet echt bevredigend. Crowthers eigenzinnige tekeningen werken eigenlijk niet zo goed op dit niveau, daarvoor zijn ze net iets te raar.

Så finstämd.
Å denna pingvin...
Bebisen som huvudperson som alla väntar på. Magiskt.
