The Botanic Garden in Durham is currently hosting a 'nexhibition' of my Giraffe World characters, the Neckmann family, (10th May to 8th June).
(To enlarge and read the information on the image below, please click on it and then right click 'view image' and click again!)
The story telling and activity session in the glass houses on 12th June was great fun, and a good time was had by all!
The exhibition is in the Visitors' Centre Cafe, where you can relax with refreshments and tasty food. (I highly recommend the smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwiches!!)
Below are some of the illustrations exhibited.

Oh, what a magic world, so colorful and poetic!I like to discover your universe, what a sweet planet!
Thank you Malyss! The Neckmann family love their home and are always glad when people enjoy their visits! :)
Malyss was as always right - magic is the word!
Darn, The North Sea is too large to swim, especially for us short-necks ...
Good luck with the exhibition!
RuneE thank you! Maybe you could find a secret portal from Norway to the Botanic Garden in Durham :)
If only Durham were nearer as I'm sure that your work is even more impressive seen at first hand. I will be looking for Narcissus sylvestris ssp giraffodil in the bulb catalogues later this year :)
Let me know if you find any, Anna! :)
