Linda Kot sent me an enthusiastic recommendation--to read The Fairy Tale Girl by Susan Branch of Martha's Vineyard. The author's blog gives you a good idea of what she does, incorporating drawings and handwritten text. I'm looking forward to landing a copy of the book, but until I do, here's Susan Branch's blog:

Last time I saw Elena, I was so afraid she'd have learned to pronounce "lemonade" correctly--but no. She still has one baby word left: littamade.
So I just went out and bought the ingredients to make a big pitcher of littamade for tomorrow's Easter cookout. That and chocolate cake and strawberry pie.
I'd bought one of those large spouted drink containers at a garage sale last week, hoping to use it for making kombucha, but my teacher, Kate, said it had to be a glass or pottery container. So today, celebrating Pam's birthday belatedly, Pam suggested I use it for Easter littamade.
