1970 The Longest Journey in the World by William Barrett Morris | Vintage Illustrated Caterpillar Picture Book
A wonderfully illustrated 1970 children’s picture book following a tiny caterpillar as he sets off on what feels, to him, like the longest and most adventurous journey in the world.
The Longest Journey in the World was written by William Barrett Morris and illustrated by Betty Fraser, with lush, highly detailed botanical artwork filling the pages. The greens, blues, flowers, grasses, birds and tiny caterpillar make this such a visually charming vintage children’s book, especially for nature lovers, collectors of retro picture books, or anyone who loves beautifully illustrated old children’s books.
