On the cover of "Corgiville Fair", written and illustrated by Tasha Tudor, is a carriage with a family of excited Corgis and a Rabbit family with a wagon full of carrots and other vegetables entering the Main Gate of the Fair. The back cover shows farm wagons with entries for the fair. A large variety of different wagons, carriages, and carts for different purposes abound in "Corgiville Fair". The title page has a buggy pulled by a goat and driven by a Corgi smoking a pipe, crossing a covered bridge. The first two pages are a magnificent spread of Corgiville, showing many carriages, one cart even pulled by a pig!

In "A Time to Keep", written and illustrated by Tasha Tudor, Tasha shows ladies seated in carriages watching the marionette show.
