In this video I show you the original artwork for my book Lydia and her garden, which was one of a set of six books which were published by Oxford University Press in 1987 as part of world famous, Oxford Reading Tree reading scheme. They were also the fist books that I had published
The books stayed in print for years. But recently I have had the rights returned and have made the books available again in a larger picture book sized edition through Amazon which you can get here:
See the whole Lydia playlist to see the artwork for each story and the story behind it. youtu.be/P3wKrOHSxjY
There are six Lydia Stories available in two books of three. They are charming stories of pre-school, everyday life.
You can buy the Lydia at Home book here from Amazon in the UK: amzn.to/3FqGWUV | Here from The USA: amzn.to/3LTA70J | and here in Canada: amzn.to/3l7dHgN
