Le petit Chacal et le Crocodile illustrated by Simone Ohl in the 50's.
















Here is a cute book written by Miss Sara Cone Bryand and illustrated by Simone Ohl.
This book is from the 50's but i don't know exactly when it was edited for the first time...
You can't see the typography and it's a pity because it's really great, it reminds me of the old Babar's book with a nice handwriting !!!
I like the shapes of the plants, it's very interesting how the leaves are drawing on the Croco with just a line on the pictures 11 and 12.
 I think i would never have thought to do this like that but it works ! 
50's were the golden age...
I know my scan is too small, i  have to invest in a bigger !!! :D

Oh i forgot something...

HAPPY NEW YEAR MY DEAR READERS AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT !!! :)
