Gansje Kriek en Konijntje Snif

The weirdest thing, I don't remember any particular books or stories from my childhood. What I do remember are illustrations in books and I especially remember certain illustration styles. This book is a good example of an illustration style I clearly remember. The softness, the use of colour and most of all how the girls and the goose are illustrated. 

Illustrated by Belgian illustrator Marcel Marlier.

Original title is: 'L'oie Eugénie et Snif le lapin' by Jeanne Dethise and Marcel Marlier (Casterman)

My clock book

This children's book from 1958 learns kids to tell time. 

Cute stories by Clinge Doorenbos, however it's a bit disturbing that these children have to take care of themselves ;-)

Kra learns to sings

A Belgian book for the youngest who learn to read.

The locomotive and other stories - Godfried Bomans

I bought this lovely book at a flea market at a church. I bought it by judging the cover. At home I realised just how wonderfully illustrated it is. Especially the last story about the fish (please scroll down!). The stories are written by Godfried Bomans, a well known Dutch writer, the illustrations are by C. van Velsen. The book is from 1954.
