[LM_NET] Book title

[Judith McGhie <jfmcghie@HOTMAIL.COM>]

Hi all,
I'm a recent subscriber to LM_NET, and have to say I'm finding the 
discussions really interesting, even though a lot of the talk is a little 
foreign to me, coming from a little primary school (ages 5-11)library in New 
Zealand! Thanks for all the inspiration and ideas so far.
Now I'm hoping someone will be able to help me with the title of a book I 
found in my local library a year or so ago.
It was a collection of drawings and accompanying sentences which had been, 
according to the introduction, left with a publisher for consideration, but 
the man who left it there never returned. The drawings were particularly 
beautiful and rather haunting (puzzling in an M.C. Escher-like way), and 
each was accompanied by a sentence which suggested the beginnings of a 
mysterious story. The only illustration I can remember clearly showed 
butterflies or something on the wallpaper coming alive and flying about.
At the time I thought this book would make a fabulous 'ideas starter' for 
students' creative writing, but the teacher I showed it to wasn't that 
enthusiastic.
Now I've discovered a similar style of book in 'Imagine a Day' (Sarah L 
Thompson, 2005) and really want to take another look at the first book! I 
have a strong feeling it was published in the USA, but that's probably not 
much help!
Any ideas please?
Please respond offlist.
