The Stinky Cheese Man

The Stinky Cheese Man (and other fairly stupid tales), is one of my daughters favorite books!! She received this as a Christmas gift last year and I have read it about a dozen times to her!! Not only are the pictures in the book pretty amazing to look at, the stories are taken from really old tales that I grew up with listening to. The only difference with the stories in this book are the many different twists added to each one!

This is the title page. You can already tell the lackadaisical style of the text and how it's placed on the page. There is no rhyme or reason, just to make the book more interesting and fun to view!





The text throughout the book is great!---Ranging from Serif to Sans-serif--and many, many different styles and sizes!!

This is an example of one of the stories in the book. The story is called "Jack's Story". It's a spin off of Jack and the beanstalk. You can see how the text starts off large and then as the story goes on, it gets smaller and disappears completely off the page...What an interesting and fun way to have a book tell a story!!!

Here is an example of the incredible graphics and colorful pictures in the book!!! I love how they look antique and how they are drawn! You can even tell the style of characters in "Jack's Story"--what fun!
