Various book-related elements — paper, ink, bindings, cover boards, woodblocks, and cutting utensils — were strewn about the room, and eye-catching examples of printed fonts and picture images were propped up against the baseboards.

Why not simply paint a picture that sums up what I’d like to convey instead? Well … for starters, I can’t paint, or at least not very well, which is why I have tremendous admiration for those who can. When I pick up a book that contains eye-capturing images — whether a children’s picture book, a young adult comic strip, an illustrated dictionary, or a coffee table volume — my “reading” experience is transformed. The visual art fires up a portion of my brain that allows me to “marvel” in a completely different way.","PeriodicalId":29991,"journal":{"name":"Virginia Libraries","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67763395","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shockingly bright in his black-and-white environment, the March Hare peers out from behind pointed arches, while a pensive blue Caterpillar lounges among the crowds at Golgotha. Next to this, a beat-up hardback copy of Steven King’s The Stand has been transformed into a tome bound in stitched skin, scarred and bleeding, with a milky eye embedded in the cover. The next book is an old encyclopedia volume, whose pages have been folded and sprayed with adhesive to keep them open and stiff: across the fanned-out paper, the artist has stenciled a message: “PRINT IS DEAD.”","PeriodicalId":29991,"journal":{"name":"Virginia Libraries","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67763414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nor have they read The Fault in Our Stars by John Green or The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. These novels evoke emotion in those who read them, not just from the plot, but from the perfect word choice and phrasing. Hundreds of authors have created literary masterpieces for us, and those titles are found in school curricula and public libraries, on bedside tables and underneath pillows. But sometimes books are more than gently woven words and carefully crafted paragraphs. Sometimes there are images to correspond with the words, giving the reader the ultimate experience: text and images sewn together so as to enhance the reader’s imagination (“I wonder how that would look in real life?”) and curiosity (“That’s how!”). Books are art, and just like when critiquing a da Vinci or Matisse painting, there is no incorrect interpretation or opinion. Therefore, allow me to give you my interpretation of young adult novels as art, in terms of illustrations outside as well as inside the cover.","PeriodicalId":29991,"journal":{"name":"Virginia Libraries","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67763565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
