On each page a picture and caption begin a rhymed couplet that is completed when you turn the book upside down. This description may be from another edition of this product.
A charming book of carton images where the interpretation depends on your perspective
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Newell uses a cartoon art form that utilizes the same human perception characteristics that allows for optical illusions. Each image in this book presents a specific interpretation, aided by a caption, when viewed and then a different one when inverted. Sometimes it is necessary to stare at the image for a moment in order to see what the caption claims, but eventually it will "appear." Full of light amusement, this book is impressive in the level of thought that Newell had to put into each image in order to obtain his desired result.
