Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Do you believe in fairies? If so, this book will delight you. "It wasn't produced for someone who isn't a believer in things magical," observes photographer Anne Geddes, who clearly is. What is also abundantly clear is that she appreciates the charm of babies and small children, and the role that fantasy plays in their young lives. Her tiny models become fairies, gnomes, sunflowers, water lilies, field mice, ladybugs, and peas in a pod in this amusing and endearing volume. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Kirkus Reviews Australian photographer Geddes (The Twelve Days of Christmas, 1995) is well known for her, well, strange pictures of babies. Now she sets the tots Down In The Garden ($49.95; Sept. 15, 1996; 160 pages; ISBN 1-55912-017-7). In full-page color photos (even some gatefolds), we see babies as pea pods, babies in cocoons, one newborn with butterfly wings resting on a mushroom, babies in flowerpots with bouquets on their heads. Mostly, all you see of them are their baby faces. |
