Welcome back, friend!
I was looking through
one of my old books, and I found this image.
one of my old books, and I found this image.
I didn't think about it much and assumed they were looking at a plane
until I read the name of the story, "Little Hum," and read the sentence under the picture:
"They thought Hum was very small and pretty, and Hum thought they were giants."
Then I realized,
"They didn't have planes back then. The skies were quiet and even the streets were pretty still."
Little hummingbird is what they looked out to see.
I cleaned up the image and made an antiqued version of it...
and a black and white.
Here is the pretty border that was on the last page of the short story,
the antiqued version,
and the black and white.
These are from a late 1800's book, so the illustrations are not copyrighted.
Feel free to make something fun from them.
I am sharing these images at these Blog Parties:
Beautiful. I especially like the borders. Thank you for sharing. I visited from The Modest Mom.
