I doubt that can be done, for in general, it is the publishing company that would determine things of that nature: they'd only do it if they thought that version of the book would sell. 

More importantly, perhaps we can encourage a publisher to release it in North America...

Who would have thought the sketches would be so popular?!  They really are great though.  Pete, if you can, pass on a thank you to the company who did them.  I really enjoy the tv series for it's simplicity and the graphic designs only added to the simple, rustic feel.

Do you think we could persuade Jamie to release a book with just the recipes in the drawing format?

If a book were to be produced with the recipes in the drawing format

I would buy 5 copies!!!!!!!     No kidding!      

(I hope Jamie's people are paying attention to this) 

It would be one of my favourites!

I get annoyed with many cook books and am always on the lookout for one that has that little something...to make it special.
Though I do have some cookbooks that are in the collection simply for the fantastic ideas and recipes in them.  I used to have some very unique and collectable cookbooks but lost them when our apartment building burnt down!
(Wasn't me)

I love my Jamie At Home but was mildly let down that it didnt have the same graphics as the tv series...

Pete, I think Helen is onto something with the idea of a recipe journal in this format (brown paper look, hand drawn sketchs) that we could write our own faves into... (reckon you could persuade Jamie to have it out by next September?)

Pacandt.. for me it was still very worth it though as Im just getting into growing my own veg in past 2 years... and I love having all Jamies recipes...

My kids will eat anything that comes from a Jamie book. Thats why my daughter now eats spinach..
