The book Art and Max by David Wiesner starts out with tan end pages. I believe that the illustrator chose tan as the end pages because it symbolizes the desert sand. This book is also set up with a horizontal landscape. Throughout the book there is a transition between full bleeds, double full bleeds, and borders. The illustrator uses all of the different types of borders so that he can get his story across perfectly through the pictures as well as the text. I would highly recommend this book to anyone. I thought it was extremely creative.
I read Art & Max for the first time and the over-all theme of the this picture could be thought of as creativity, or understanding of differences. The colors throughout the book are generally muted except for when he paints all over Arthur (Art). The pictures are full bleed on every page but there is a rare occasion when the page is split into several different pictures. It is definitely a good book for younger readers.
i love this book 5 stars *****
