The title of this book is A Light in the Attic. Poems and drawings are by Shel Silverstein, the publisher is HarperCollins. Illustration on the cover is a face. The eyes are drawn with simple circles; the nose is traced with dots. On the top of the face, there is an attic that has a short chimney. A person is peeking out of the open window in the very front of the attic. Under the attic, the faces hair is like messy straw. Stars are surrounding the face with the title of the book on the very side. On the other side of the jacket, is a black and white picture of the author’s face. He is wearing a heavy coat with fur on the hood. His hair is all shaved off, he has very white teeth and he has wrinkles around his eyes.
Beneath the jacket, there is a signature of the author written in the color, gold. A short paragraph about this book and a poem is in the inner side of the jacket. There are 168 pages in total.
A light in th Attic is a book that would catch my eye in a book store. My first impression is : it has a artistic surrounding feeling.
“A person is peeking out of the open window in the very front of the attic. Under the attic, the faces hair is like messy straw.”---? The hair of the person, or the face? Maybe the hair on the top of the face… and “messy straws” because I believe he has more than “one hair” right?
ReplyDelete“Stars are surrounding the face with the title of the book on the very side.” Well…which side? left or right? or the edge of the book?
“artistic surrounding feeling” I would like to know what this kind of feeling is…hahaha
