The Dictionary Story by Oliver Jeffers, Sam Winston
4.0

Another unique partnership between Oliver Jeffers and artist Sam Winston. This book is fun to read on multiple levels: the handwritten text, the illustrations, and the printed dictionary definitions (including the endpapers). This layered cleverness reminded me in some ways of "Black and White" by David Macaulay.

Don't miss the thank-you note at the front of the book -- it took a real team effort.
