PRAISE FOR ANITA BIJSTERBOSCH'S WHOSE HAT IS THAT?:
A well-illustrated, well-told repetitive-pattern book is worth its weight in gold in a classroom of beginning readers, and this one fills the bill perfectly. -- School Library Journal on WHOSE HAT IS THAT?
A repetitive refrain book that children of a certain age love, since it is so predictable. It is also a knowing and naming book that presents less than fully realistic images of familiar animals. - Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award Winner on WHOSE HAT IS THAT?
I'm
Anita Bijsterbosch. I was born in 1961 in The Netherlands. My entire life, I have loved reading. As a child, I could spend hours thumbing through books, looking at the pictures and hoping I could one day make such beautiful illustrations myself. I studied the images down to the smallest detail and made up my own little stories to go along with them.
After high school, I took drawing and painting lessons in small galleries in my neighborhood. And I learned a lot from drawing and painting books. But I also mastered many techniques simply by experimenting with them on my own.
When my children were still young, I read them a bedtime story every night. I rediscovered that some picture books are real pieces of art. Thats when I got the ambition to make my very own picture books.
I was remarked by the jury of the
Key Colours International Illustrators Award 2012. The book Whose Hat is That? was published by Clavis Publishing and every book I have made since has been even more successful.
