Bookmark for Kids



ah well, since I worked on some bookmark designs over the last weeks, I really wished to make something for kids also, and here they are: some cows to accompany a child while experiencing the adventure of reading a book…

"I touched one for the first time. I'd seen the older children in class look into books for invisible traces, as if they were driven by the same force and, sinking deeper into silence, they were able to draw from dead paper something that seemed alive.
Unbeknownst to all, I learned to read."

… from the wonderful book "The Elegance of the Hedgehog" 
by Muriel Barbery



The book shown here is the German version of "Winnie-the-Pooh", "Pu der Bär", by A.A.Milne, Illustrations by E.H. Shepard, first published in 1926
