I expect more “artists are just spoiled aristocrats” radioactive takes, but I’m posting this anyway. :this-is-fine:

That’s disappointing to hear. The ones I’ve seen recently (albeit at real bookshops) are of decent quality.
Oh yeah, there is a lot of very clever work being done in some quarters, but every time my mother-in-law goes to the dollar store she brings my daughter one of these ten-page-long whatchamacallits with no author listed, and they’re always full of borderline-uncanny illustrations and imperfect rhyme. Sorry, this is a hot-button issue for me right now.
