King & King by Linda de Haan & Stern Nijland
2002/32pgs
For me this book proves that as much as I love picture books, there are some illustration styles that I just won't get. King & King has a cute enough story but I couldn't get over the illustrations. Torn paper made the pages look gritty and gross and the pictures were just ugly. Once I got to the page of the Queen spitting random stuff out of her mouth, I knew I wasn't a fan of the illustrations. The art was abstract and odd and distracted me from the rest of the book. Not my favorite book.
