私はボローニャブックフェアで声をかけていただいた、イラストレーターです。
その節はどうもありがとうございました。
「Baby coos」の最初の１,2pの絵を描きました。
どんなイラストを描くか検討したのですが、それ以前に文章の
「See the baby? What ‘s baby’s name? Say…」
のところで区切り、次のページで「baby!」というように、
文章の「Say…」の前でページを変えた方が絵本全体にリズムと変化が生まれ、楽しい絵本になると考えました。

I am the illustrator who spoke to you at Bologna Book Fair.
Thank you for your help the other day.
I drew the first version of the 1st and 2nd pages of "Baby coos".
When I was considering what kind of illustration to draw, I thought that the previous attempt - where a break was inserted during the place where the text reads "See the baby? What's baby's name? Say..." on one page and "baby!" on the next page - was good. If we could change the page after the word "Say..." in the text, the whole rhythm of the picture book would change. I thought this would make for an interesting picture book.

I am an illustrator that you have talked at the Bologna Book Fair.
Thank you very much for taking time to talk to me at that time.
I have drawn page one and two of "Baby coos" at first.
I spent long time at first wondering what kind of illustrations I should draw but decided to end the first page like "See the baby? What ‘s baby’s name? Say…" and then continue the next page starting from "baby!". By starting the page at the sentence "Say..." will give a rhythm and change to the whole book and make it more enjoyable, I thought.

I am an illustrator and just happened to be talked at the Bologna Book Fair.
Thank you very much at that time.
I painted the first 1,2p of Baby coos.
I had been considering what sort of picture I should paint but breaking at the sentence,See the baby? What ‘s baby’s name? Say… and appears baby! at the next page, it might create much rhythm to change the page at just before the sentence Say…, finally it will be turned out to be much more interesting picture book I imagined.

そこで「Say…」の前で改ページする事を前提とした３つのアイデアと、
それらを見開き１pにまとめたものも制作しました。
PDFをご覧下さい。
A・このアイデアは、赤ちゃんがお母さんの膝のうえで絵本を読んでもらっている風景を想像しながら描きました。赤ちゃんはお母さんの膝のうえで、絵本を通して鏡を見ている赤ちゃんの手元を見ています。次のページでお母さんの膝のうえに乗っている赤ちゃんの絵を見て、赤ちゃんが絵本を通して自分を見ているような感じがすると面白いと考えています。

Also, I produced three ideas on the condition that we can change the page at "Say.." and another one that shows those ideas in two facing pages.
Please see the attached PDF.
A. This was drawn imaging a baby whose mother is reading a book on her knees. The baby is on her mother's knees and looking at the hands of the baby who is looking into the mirror in the book. On the next page, it will be interesting to imagine that the baby on her monther's knees feels like she is just looking at herself when she sees the drawing of a baby on her mother's knees, as if she is looking at herself through the book.
Please see the attached PDF.

Then just before Say..., I created the work with open page to gather 3 ideas featuring for the possibility to turn page.
Please see the pdf.
A. This idea came from the imagination of the scene on the baby taking time to be read on the lap of mother.Baby always looks at the the hand of the baby looking through the mirror through the picture book on the lap of mother. Next page shows looking at the picture of baby on the lap of mother, it is thought that it is interesting that baby seems look at him/her self through the picture book.

ですので3,4pの絵は鏡に映ったような向きの絵です。
B・Aの3,4pを鏡移りではなくカメラで映した構図にしたものです。
C・A,Bとはまったく違うアイデアです。A,Bは赤ちゃんにとって絵の中の状況を理解するのが難しいかもしれないため、シンプルなものも考えました。
D・BとCを見開き１pにしています。
日本に帰ってから自宅の引っ越しをしなければならず、絵を送るのが期限ギリギリになってしまいましたが、baby coosの絵を描けるのを楽しみにしています。
どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

In this way, pages 3 and 4 are like mirror image.
B, This was drawn not like mirror image but as if taken by camera.
C, Totally different idea from A and B. A and B may be too difficult for a baby to fully understand the concept of the drawing so I made it more simplistic.
D, I made B and C into 1 illustration using two facing pages.
After I returned to Japan, I had to relocate my house and it became almost too late to send you the drawings but I am really looking forward to drawing illustrations for "baby coos".
Thank you very much.

Therefore the picture 3,4p represents the picture because of reflecting by the mirror.
B. 3.4p at A represents with the angle of camera, different from the mirror.
C. Different idea from A or B. A and B are difficult to be understood by baby so that I made it so simple.
D. B and C represent over the open 1 page.
I must prepare for moving when I return to Japan, sending pictures was limited in timing, I am looking forward to painting the baby coos.
With regards.
