This is one of those very rare occasions when I write in my blog about other blogs or websites, but this is really worth spreading the word. I would not be surprised if you're already aware of Brain Pickings blog if you're interested in visual communication, design, art, and story-telling, but just in case you've never read it and you look for content on children books, this is just for you: A Brief History of Children’s Picture Books and the Art of Visual Storytelling .
