I just did a "report" for my "Enjoying Children's Literature" class on Remy Charlip. He's one of my favorite authors and illustrators of kids books. I found his Arm In Arm a year ago on the shelf at Elliot Bay Books, and I've been in love with him ever since. He's written and/or illustrated 33 picture books, and he's also a choreographer, dancer, designer, and theater director.
His illustrations and word games in Arm In Arm are amazing. I have the old (1969) copy, and I've seen at least the cover of the new edition and it doesn't look nearly as cool as mine.
