When We Were Very Young by A. A. Milne is a beautifully illustrated hardcover collection of classic children's poetry, featuring the original artwork of E. H. Shepard reproduced in full color.

Before Winnie-the-Pooh became a household name, Milne introduced readers to the wonderfully imaginative world of childhood through these poems. There's Christopher Robin, a familiar trip to Buckingham Palace, and all those little observations that children find important while grown-ups are busy looking elsewhere.

I particularly love this edition for Shepard's illustrations. They give these nearly century-old poems such personality, and the green cover with its red spine makes a lovely companion to the other anniversary books in the collection.

FAQs

WHAT IS A GICLEÉ PRINT?

Giclee printing is currently the highest quality standard for printing single or limited edition prints. The term "giclee"(pronounced "ZHEE-CLAY")is a French word meaning "to spray." Giclee prints are created by spraying millions of droplets of ink onto archival fine-art substrates. The word "giclee," as a fine-art term, has come to be associated with prints using fade-resistant archival pigmented inks printed on archival substrates by professional inkjet printers. Giclee prints represent the highest evolution in printmaking technology. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy and richer depth of color than other means of art reproduction possible.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT ABOUT THE PRINT QUALITY?

A great gicleé print begins with a great image. We proudly use a privately owned giclee printing company founded in 2003 that services the fine art and photography markets. They have gained international recognition with featured articles about their services in Digital Ouput Magazine, Digital Photo Pro Magazine and on the Oprah show. Osio-Brown Editions is one of the original giclee printing studios in the Chicago area and is a preeminent force in the fine art giclee printing industry. Their client list extends throughout the United States, Central & South America and Europe.

WHAT ABOUT FRAMING?

The prints are standard sizes allowing them to be framed easily with stock size frames found in most stores. Custom framing is always a beautiful option but not necessary.

CAN I ORDER AN ORIGINAL AND/OR CUSTOM PIECE OF ARTWORK?

YES! ALL of our artwork is painted by local artists with wonderful reputations and are more than happy to embellish, to create, and to work with you! Contact us through email for all questions. order@libertyschoolhouse.com
