Fairy tales for grown ups

Boven: Kamillethee. Onder: De gele regenjas

When I moved to my new website over the summer I left behind a few things that need reinstalling. One of those is the two litle fairy tales for grownups I wrote and illustrated earlier this year. They are 10 x 10 cm harmonicabooks. The picture above shows both first pages. One (up top) is about a workaholic husband who forgets all about his wife and children. The other is about a young woman who desperately wants to find a husband. Both serious problems get remedied within only five pages!

Up top: finding a husband. Bottom: reconnecting with your spouse.
I still have some books left from the spring exhibition in Leiden and will put them in my little Big Cartel shop over here. They are beautifully printed on slightly textured cream paper. The black ink is nice and shiny, the other colours are matt. They make really nice presents…

… for whoever needs some reminding.. or not! English translations included for non-Dutchmen.
