He Carries the Books Print
For the girl whose TBR pile needs its own bodyguard. 📚🐦
Some love stories begin with a glance across a crowded ballroom. The best ones begin with a man who quietly picks up every single book you couldn't resist, and carries them home without a word of complaint.
He Carries the Books is a soft watercolour illustration of exactly that kind of romance. A broad-shouldered, smiling hero balances a towering stack of jewel-toned books, a cheeky robin perched proudly on top, while his red-haired love wanders beside him, nose buried in a story, a satchel of wildflowers at her hip.
Warm russet, cornflower blue and faded berry tones make it a cosy, storybook piece for reading nooks, bedrooms and home libraries, and a sweet gift for the book lover who already has far too many books (and absolutely needs more).
