List Lover, List Lover, List Lover here! Kathy, you are great for lists, and finding even more! Yay Thanks to all involved!
And I’m thinking these are the July “blown away” illustrations. They are fantastic! The rabbit cracked my up They all reminded me of a book I recently discovered that I have to mention here. If you haven’t seen it, you really need to. I love the subject matter and the story, but the illustrations literally “blew me away!”

Then, when I found out a film short, that was based on it, won an Academy Award, I found it on YouTube. It’s totally worth taking the 15 minutes to watch this. It’s amazing!
Great, fun list. Thanks for this and the links to the other lists. Sometimes it just takes a word to inspire a story.
Thanks for the mention, Kathy!
What a fun list! Thanks for including my work!
Cheers,
