Paul Rand children’s booksWorth noting: Amid over at Cartoon Modern recently mentioned that Chronicle Books has reprinted two of influential graphic designer Paul Rand’s children’s books. His wife, Ann, worked on them as well. The books are: Little 1 and Sparkle and Spin.

They are definitely worth checking out.

  • have they a site with all the art work on???

    If Ayn, it couldn't be in color. In fact, no shades of grey. Black or White.
  • A very fascinating idea is realized in this website! And a very adequate and easy to handle layout has been found too! Congratulations!
  • i'd love to see a reprint of their other collaboration; it's called something like "the things i know"
