While visiting my parents last week, I discovered one of my most treasured books from childhood. simply titled "Gnomes". I recently heard Heather Ross mention the book, and that as a child she believed that they there were gnomes like these living in her oven. I think it was her appearance on "The Martha Stewart Show". It was so nice hearing that I wasn't the only one who had dreams that our woodland friends were real:)
If you aren't familiar with this book, you must stop by your library and have a look. This is one of the most wonderfully illustrated books of all time.
Enjoy a few photos here. Do any of you have fond memories of looking at the pages from this book?
