PRAIA MAR
£15
Praia Mar (Portuguese for ‘Seaside’), a picture book by Bernardo Carvalho. Beautifully illustrated beach scenes depict snorkelers, sun worshippers and sandcastle builders amongst others.
Famous Portuguese illustrator Bernardo Carvalho, together with fellow illustrators Madalena Matoso and Yara Kino, form the award winning design and publishing company Planeta Tangerina, whose primary aim is to ‘do the things we love to do’. Unrestricted by solely commercial restraints Carvalho explains, ‘If we like what we do, we publish it, that’s enough for us’. The deceptive simplicity of Carvalho’s drawings continues to delight not only a generation of children ‘but parents love them too’.
