Something New











Something that I picked up on the other day in class when I was looking through comic books and pictures books is how simple yet effective Dr. Seuss’ illustrations are. I like how his imagination allows him to create all of these wonderful worlds and creatures, but its still tied down to the world we live in. Take for instance the fish from “The Cat in The Hat,” I’ve never seen a fish like that in my life, but to kids that see the book for the first time they don’t see anything wrong with it. It’s a simple illustration that fits the description he is trying to portray.
