Graphic Canon Children's Literature / 7 Stories Press

This affords the joy of being able to compare, say, Tara Seibel’s surrealist take on Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams with Peter Kuper’s paranoid visualization of Kafka’s fever dreams. ––BOOKLIST

"Some of history’s most skillful wielding of tales has refused to bend to the false divide between “children’s” and “adult” storytelling . . . On the heels of the year’s best children’s books comes a magnificent embodiment of that ethos in The Graphic Canon of Children’s Literature" --Maria Popova, Brainpickings

"These dazzlingly varied renderings run the gamut from haunting to comical while offering visceral reminders that children's stories are often densely layered, infinitely transposable, and peddle in imagery both macabre and whimsical. It is the unfettered imagination of these stories that make them not only wildly entertaining, but also vessels of forgotten truths."
