Winter Wonderland by Gill McLean
Somewhere in the forest, amongst the tallest trees, Between the snow capped mountains, in a bed of fallen leaves...' Where are the baby bear cubs hiding? Die cut windows lead the reader through the book, each turn of the page revealing the back of the scene as though walking through the snowy landscape. A die cut window on the back cover leads us full circle to the inside of the bear's cave illustrated on the front cover. Colour illustrations throughout and rhyming text.
The author, Gill McLean, has illustrated and designed many children's books, with publishers such as Templar, Harper Collins, Oxford University Press and QED. She works in both traditional and digital media to match the art style to the story and has designed everything from pictures to pop-up books. Gill lives in the Yorkshire Dales, England.
