Top 10 Favorite Books

Wow, I have not updated my blog for ages!  Too tired everyday after returning home from my day job. 

Yesterday, I have received (so honored) an invitation from my dear MATS buddy Antoana Oreški-Džafić to participate to a book nomination project. The participants should name 10 of their very favorite books and ask 10 other friends to make their list.

I am a bookworm, so this is not a big problem :-) 

When you look at my list, please just don't laugh.  From the list, you can have a glimpse of how my world is like recently.  I am so obssessed by almost anything related to making art for children.

Here you go, my Top 10 Favorite Books (not in specific order):

Histoires inédites du Petit Nicolas - by Goscinny & Sempé

The Art of Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea - by Hayao Miyazaki, Studio Gibli
