This book has such fun little pictures...and the story is pretty cute too. The story and drawings are by Adelaide Hall and the year was 1965. I just love the way the water is so geometric and the little strawberry drinkie in the picnic scene is pretty amazing too!
A special little shout out to my friend Pilgrim, who has a super sweet blog, Draw, Pilgrim! She recently posted a vintage children's book saying she was inspired by Strawberry Lemonade (so sweet!), and then when I saw HER post it reminded me of this book (even though her book isn't about a giant, the name Oleg reminded me of a giant which reminded me of this book....and....and....well, my mind works in mysterious ways!). Thanks Miss Pilgrim!
