Many years ago the Dutch Freddy Langeler illustrated Het Jaartje Rond, a picture book with poems by Martien Beversluis. The pictures in this book are filled with cute doll children, who have fun together all year round. Each month has it's own nostalgic verse and with it a beautiful, cozy picture of the doll children. Those pictures have all kinds of details that grandma recognizes, but the little monsters don't :))
Nevertheless, our young listeners enjoy looking at the sweet coloured pictures and we have a lot of fun with this old picture book (first published by the Gebroeders Kluitman in Alkmaar in 1928).
