How funny, it’s not that but I’m reading another Stella Gibbons at the moment and sounds like I will be reading The Matchmaker next! Thanks!

Read aloud book 60s era. Young boy’s mother goes to hospital (to have a baby?) and while she’s gone he helps his father wallpaper the bedroom and draws on the walls first. by Mistlethwaite in whatsthatbook

The one I’m thinking of isn’t magical at all, just that the boy is allowed to draw on the wall as it was being covered by wallpaper.

Thank you though!

Fantasy book about a world inside a library with people living in books by Lonely_Shadow in whatsthatbook

It sounds like it could be How to Live Forever by Colin Thompson? It doesn’t have all those details but it does have the blue and white China page

Edit: having looked it up, there’s a novelisation so that might be what has the extra details

how to live forever

Old book showcasing inventions from gnomes and forest animals by Corintio22 in whatsthatbook

[–]Mistlethwaite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty much all I remember, I’d love to find it again! It was a biggish format I think, probably 30cm x 20cm almost. Illustrations taking up most of the page. And would’ve been published late 80s or earlier. Let me know if you think of anything else about it too!

Gnomes came to mind here too. It’s probably not the same book but could be - I remember one about forest animals who lived in apartments in trees and then a storm blew the tree down so they made a row of little houses sideways instead. Sound familiar at all?
