For the beginning of summer, MiniMondays is going to have a series focusing on a small fraction of the lovely artists books by Peter and Donna Thomas!
For our book after a long weekend, we have some lovely illustrations of mushrooms in an ABC accordion book!
"Printed watercolors on one side of an accordion folded handmade sheet (50 x 150 mm.), shaped to resemble a mushroom. First and last folded leaves mounted on two paper boards, covered with gray paper, and also shaped as a mushroom. Title paper label on front cover. Issued in a slipcase covered with paper and with a mylar front cover that reveals the shaped binding."--Catalog
Peter and Donna Thomas are "book artists from Santa Cruz, CA. They work both collaboratively and individually; letterpress printing, hand-lettering and illustrating texts, making paper, and hand binding both fine press and artists’ books." They have made over 100 limited edition books, often with Peter making the paper, and Donna doing the illustrations.
Check out more of Donna and Peter's books at Uiowa here.

This is the smallest book I've found in our rare book collection! Aunt Rose and Her Nieces was part of the Tiny Library series published from 1858-1869 by Merriam, Moore, & Co in Troy, NY.
Other small scale books from the series included The Life of General Tom Thumb, Dew Drops, and the Holy Bible.
HOWDY FOLKS I've not drawn very much as of late since. uhhhh. SEVERAL things happened. but one of them is because i went to a miniature painting convention this past weekend!
it was super fun! here's a couple minis i painted-- first one was just for fun and i want to make her into a character now, second one i did in a class on painting with limited palettes! i did that with only three different colors of paint!
Eddie who gets Steve to play DnD with the kids and the rest of Hellfire and it goes great but for the first two sessions Steve has to borrow dice from Eddie and the kids.
When the third session comes around and Eddie asks him if he wants to borrow his dice again, Steve shakes his head and pulls the most innocent face when he tells the group he finally got his own dice, only to pull out several sets of hot pink 10mm miniature dice.
Measuring 6mm, this micro book is one of the smallest in the collection. Serments d’Amour (roughly translating to ‘Love Oaths’), features the phrase “I Love You” in 8 different languages. The little book is bound in red leather with a stamped golden heart on the front cover, featuring golden gilded edges. The copy was issued in a cream case with a red velvet cushion and a small, magnified case to help see the finer details.
Je t'aime -- I love you -- Ich liebe Dich -- Ti voglio bene --我爱你-- Я тебя люблю-- أحبك --te amo --te quiero
