It had a girl and a boy character, and on every page there was a new scene, like a building, boat, plane etc. all built from building blocks. I can't really remember what happened in it, if anything because I was very small, or the name of the book or author, but it was a library book which I loved, I saw it in the library at Mere Green maybe 1980-ish. I remember they both had black hair, the girl's hair was in a bob which was very wide. I think it had only a small amount of colour in it.
If anyone could tell me what it is, I would be very grateful, as I would love to have a copy.
I remember the boy and girl were quite small in relation to the pictures, and I don't think it had much in the way of text either, it was aimed at pre-school children, and I don't think it was part of a series.
It definitely wasn't Topsy and Tim. I don't think it was Mark and Mandy, the drawings were cartoony, with flat colours, without much shading.
Apologies if you previously answered/read this question.
Does anyone know the name/author of this children's book, possibly from the late 1970s?
The best thing to do is what I did. My book was from the 1950's and I still did it!!
Go to EBay, look under children's books and then whizz through the titles and pictures. The name will probably leap out at you! Mine did! All I could remember was that the cover was yellow - and that was it! The second I saw the name though everything went click.
The brain has an amazing capacity for storing details!
Good luck!
