EDITORS COMMENTS
Gladys Peto's captivating cover design for the 1931 children's book "Storyland" is a vibrant and whimsical work of art that embodies the spirit of the 1930s. Peto, an English artist, fashion designer, illustrator, and writer, brought her unique talents together to create this visually stunning image. The cover is a riot of color and fantasy, with a rich Art Deco style that was popular during the era. A lively scene unfolds, featuring a diverse cast of people dressed in fancy costumes, celebrating in a medieval-inspired setting. A shepherdess in a flowing gown and a clown in bold stripes and a red nose join hands, leading a procession of children carrying colorful lanterns and balloons. The use of intricate patterns and bold lines adds to the sense of excitement and wonder, while the warm colors evoke a sense of joy and happiness. The cover design perfectly captures the imaginative spirit of the book within, inviting readers to step into a land of enchantment and adventure. Peto's background in fashion design is evident in the elegant and detailed costumes worn by the characters.

This cover design is a testament to Peto's versatility as an artist and her ability to capture the imagination of children and adults alike. It remains a beloved and iconic image from the 1930s, and continues to inspire and delight audiences today.
