The next books is by Dahlov Ipcar and it's a reissue by Flying Eye Books. It's called Black and White. Again, written and illustrated by Dahlov Ipcar. Some of you might have read these books growing up. This one is about two dogs who have dreams of different animals and different things in black and white. The illustrations are beautiful. They look classic. And Flying Eye has done a wonderful job bringing them back up. The illustrations are timeless in that way that they can appeal through the generations. I feel like I'm seeing something new here now that could have been created fifty or sixty years ago, or it could have been published right now by some of our contemporary artists. The rhyming text is beautiful and it's just a subtle story that plays on different animals and different colors and shadows and light. It's really kind of an understated, beautiful book. One that I think is an easy one to enjoy reading over and over and over. Nothing huge or groundbreaking happens in it, but it's the subtlety that causes you to come back over and over.
