Tales From Everywhere by Mae Broadley

Hi all!

I received my copy of Tales From Everywhere not too long ago and was (as usual) delighted with the images - and the fact that I had once again received what I'd been hoping for. I am always nervous when ordering titles illustrated by Janet and Anne, for fear they're mislabeled etc. Much like some of their earlier books, the details are a little sparse; but the quality remains on par. 

The book features stories from Australia (yay!) Africa,China, Russia, Mexico and many more. In case you are looking for a copy (there are some on Ebay at the moment) the SBN is 72350699X.

The Fairy Fishermen (New Zealand) love the early evening stars and dusk colours.

These illustrations from The Swans of Islay (Scotland) are probably some of my favourites. 
Above: The Story of Semerwater (England)
How the Tribes Began (Nigeria) how magical does this look?

The Two Brothers and the Little Mother: I love this image!

The Way Things Happen (Mexico)
A Friend for Man: Love the explosive use of colour and the details of the animals (even the creepy snake!)


Thanks for stopping by!
