Hi Zoe,

Glad you liked the book.

One of my favourite high street scenes is the one attached, from Judith Kerr's iconic The Tiger Who Came to Tea.

Best wishes,

Martin

Subject: Picture books about high streets / different types of shops

Dear all,

Reading Martin Salisbury's new 100 Great Children's Picturebooks (which
was such a treat) I was reminded of Eric Ravilious' High Street (text,
JM Richards), which got me thinking about Alice Melvin's The High
Street, and then a 2nd hand book which my kids love, 1st published
in1899, The Book of Shops by E.V. Lucas and F. D. Bedford.

I'd be most grateful if members of the list could point me to other
similar books ie illustrated or picture books focussing on the shops and
businesses you find (found) on the high street /main shopping area (any
period of history, any country/language).

Thanks in anticipation,

Zoe
