First book publishing from OOH-sounds is a collaboration with RAUM Italic (Berlin) a re-print of BLAST OFF, the picture children’s book published for the first time in 1973 in the USA. Illustrated by the multi-awarded Leo and Diane Dillon, the book randomly appeared through experts and enthusiasts blogs in the internet, and remains unpublished for more than 30 years – an underrated gem still relevant today.

BLAST OFF by Linda C. Cain & Susan Rosenbaum | illustrated by Leo and Diane Dillon

23 x 19 cm | 28 pages | English and Italian texts | hardcover

Three teenagers talk about the future. Regina dreams of travelling to space as an astronaut. Using discarded junk, she crafts a spaceship and travels among the stars and into the Universe beyond. Something unexpected forces her to return to Earth. Is young Regina’s journey an imaginary one?

After graduating from Parsons in 1956, Leo and
Diane Dillon married and began their career
together blending personal styles into what they
referred to as “The Third Artist”.
Early in their Career they sought work with a wide
variety of clients in advertising, book covers, movie
posters, record album covers, magazine, illustration,
and soon found a penchant for Fantasy and Science
fiction illustration and Children’s books.
They dedicated their work to be inclusive of all
peoples and especially those that were rarely
included in fantasy’s or children’s books in the 50’s.
“We want to reflect the real world of differences
and cultures with dignity.”
When their son, Lee, was born in 1965 they saw an
even greater need for diversity in children’s books
and found themselves coloring in white faces in the
books.
Over the 50 plus years of illustrating, some of the
awards they have received includes The Hugo Award
for Science Fiction, The Balrog Award for lifetime
Contribution to Science Fiction/Fantasy Art, The
Caldecott Medal, The Society of Illustrators Hall of
Fame, and were Most Highly Commended for The
International Hans Christian Anderson Award.
