Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Book?
Lauren Child
Herb falls into the book of fairytales where he finds himself in the story of Goldilocks and the three bears. Familiar fairytales have been intertwined into the book and Herb runs from one story to the next. The structure of the book is fictionalised with Herb escaping the angry queen by using scissors to cut a hole in the palace floor and by drawing a door on the wall to take him to the next page.
The formatting is avant garde with text appearing in all direections, even upside down. Text differs in both sizes and fonts, and Herb finally escapes the book by scrambling up the letters.
