The only reason I’m sharing this is because I love the artwork. No witty remarks or long, drawn-out commentary. Looking at it just makes me feel good, and I wanted to hopefully pass that feeling along. Not only does it illustrate what it is like to be lost in a story — perfectly, I might add — but I think it’s beautiful as well. Of course, this is one of my favorite books, so there’s that too. I don’t know who the artist is and would love to give them credit, however, as soon as I find out, I’ll update this entry.
Update: thanks to Angel of Anthropology, I found out this artwork is by Kylie Parker and is entitled “The Book” (photo below updated).
“The Book” by Kylie Parker
Musings from a Tangled Mind 
That’s quite an illustration, for sure, Wendy!
I thought it was!
What’s the book this is in?
I didn’t see the artwork in a book, but the novel it relates to is The Canterville Ghost.
And also, it’s called The Book by Kylie Parker.
Cool, thanks for that info!
Wow! This amazing!
A very talented artist.
They are!
How wonderful!
I thought it was very creative artwork.
Thanks for sharing a great portrayal of why I love old fashioned on paper books.
I have a kindle and I listen to audiobooks, but there is nothing like a “real” book…I love the feel of it, even the smell of the paper. I know, I’m a dork. 😀
Me too
Me three…
Wonderful image!
It made me happy just looking at it. I love artwork that does that.
Very cool, yes! And the title of the book itself sounds like it might be good.
The Canterville Ghost is a wonderful book. I highly recommend it to anyone.
