Books About Children's Illustration

Recently there was an interesting thread on the SCBWI boards about recommended books about and for children's illustrators. If you're a member, check it out. There are some good recommendations there for books.
While reading it, I went to Amazon.com to check on one book and found out about this one, The Annual 2002 Bologna Annual Illustrators of Children's Books. It looks inspiring. You can view some illustrations in it online.
I wonder if they have any more recent Annuals published though, since I didn't see any more recents versions at Amazon.com......................
OK
I found a more recent edition. It's the 2004 edition. It seems the 2005 one isn't out yet. I checked on the Penguin site, but it doesn't show up yet.

Here's another website, of Taro Maura to check. This illustrator has been chosen several times for the Bologna Illustrators Exhibition. (these links from Google on the Bologna exhibition are addictive..can you tell? Check them out yourself for inspiration. There are many more.

Here's another book about children's illustration. I haven't heard of this one or seen it before. It's called The Magic Pencil.
