  • Storytime by Katie Eberts Everyone Remembers Their Favorite Childhood
    Storytime by Katie Eberts Everyone remembers their favorite childhood book. Mine is Rapunzel, written and illustrated by Alix Berenzy, adapted from the original German story. Each page featured a painting that was beautifully detailed, capturing facial expression and actions, using rich colors to bring the tale to life. The most beautiful image was of Rapunzel, sitting and staring out of her tower into the night, her long hair flowing around the room behind her, reflecting the yellow light from the fire in the fireplace. I can still remember the day when my mom read this book to me, and considered taking it away after discovering the part where Rapunzel had children out of wedlock. Luckily for me, she figured that I didn’t understand what was going on (entirely true), and I was able to keep the book and fantasize over the images as much as I wanted. What I experienced when reading Rapunzel is the same feeling that I want to invoke with my illustrations: the excitement of turning the page to see what the next image would be, and continuing to have that same energy every time the book is opened. My interest in children’s literature is often based around the illustrations that accompany them. I discovered this while trying to read fairytales from a non-illustrated Brothers Grimm book. I had thought that fairytales were one of my favorite genres of literature, but while skimming Little Red Riding Hood, I found I couldn’t finish the story. Upon further thought, the version of Little Red Riding Hood that I had fallen in love with was one that had been illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman.
