Read This!

The other night while strolling through Borders I noticed a cute little book with adorable graphics on the cover. The book, titled The Octonauts, was written and illustrated by Meomi, a team of Vicki Wong of Vancouver and Michael Murphy of Los Angeles. The same night I received an email from Amy of Immedium asking that I share this book with Mixed Plate readers.

Together Vicki and Michael specialize in Critter design, as it is their passion. Meomi has illustrated for Google, Mattel and Time Out Magazine and creates a full line of paper goods, apparel and merchandise. The book is available nationwide and at specialty retailers such as the SF MOMA, SF Asian Art Museum, and the GGNRA Warming Hut Cafe…oh, and Borders!

The Octonauts are a crew of adorable animals who roam the ocean in search of fun and adventure. What is said to resemble something that is part Hello Kitty and part Star Trek, this book will entertain children and adults of all ages.

I really wish that I were a child again because the books are better than ever! Go and Read It!
