otherwise known as the week we lugged our boring selves up and about to a place not so far away (bangsar), thanks to sensible jook who (still) flips through pages of a tangible newspaper. for what? for this: a picture book week hosted by silverfish books! a fellowship for those who share an interest in creating pretty story books for tiny monsters. and have you heard about the Society of Children’s Book Writers & Illustrators Malaysia (SCBWI)? now we have, aren't we so very glad? =D one step closer to a dream coming true. huhu.

| event started off with the lovely sarimah ibrahim reading books written by yusof gajah. as chirpy-bubbly as ever. sounded and looked even better in real life than on screen, back when i was the age of those sitting in front of her looking up her pretty nose. still so pretty! |
 |
| let's take a closer look. see, it's as if she hasn't aged at all. sigh. *distracted* |
 |
| the group of featured writers/illustrators, presenting their work. good materials they all are. written with a noble cause, addressing issues faced within the country to aid in educating young and not-so-yong minds alike through simple words and beautiful illustrations. the printing/book design quality could use a little extra help though, same goes to a lot of local publication. people Do inevitably judge a book by its cover, first. |
 |
| on a totally unrelated note: random book find. what a nice statement for my homestate. tee-hee. |
 |
| acting cool. dnd. |
 |
| another random find. guess this is not for sale. X) |
