maira kalman

Going with the theme of children's books, one of the best authors/illustrators out there is Maira Kalman. We have two of her Max books: Ooh-la-la, Max in Love and Max Makes a Million. Her illustrations and typesetting are full of color and personality ... they're the kind of books that bring whole new discoveries every time they're read (NOT the Where's Waldo kind of discoveries). She has also done quite a few frame-able New Yorker covers.


And whole walls during the reconstruction of Grand Central Station.
