The Ephemerist

When I was very, very little, Nutricia coffee milk came with vouchers that could be traded in for a series of booklets for children. These booklets were written an dillustrated by Yvonne Perrin and never stray far from traditional, safe kiddie fare, with lovely animals and a fair but stern lesson at the end. They would be considered very old-fashioned if they were published today, but I simply adore Perrin’s illustrations. After reading these books time and time again, they are simply branded into my subconscious, I guess.

Starting this week, I will present one book every week. There’s supposed to be a total of 15 out there, of which I managed to collect 11.

Have fun with today’s book, as we present…

“Timmie The Tiger”
