It does creep me out but from the description of what they're going for in the book, I think it works!

Well, it is sort of weird. But then again, that book is weird!

La Cocci: Excellent point ;)

Ashley said...

For the most part, I would have been okay with it. But those bottom eyelashes- YIKES!

Emma said...

OH MY GOODNESS WANT. WANT WANT WANT WANT.

Okay, sorry, that was my immediate reaction. I just went "oo" for about thirty seconds. It's creepy and that is exactly why it's awesome.

I won't be buying a copy as I already have one, but I love this cover!

inthehammockblog said...

I love it!!! I've been wondering, is the book illustrated or is it only the cover illustration?? I want to buy it if it's fully illustrated :)

I'm going to have to say it's creepy. That doesn't mean I won't pick up a copy, though.

GMR said...

LOL. So that's what you meant? We literally picked the same cover!
=0) (Still can't decide if I think it's just creepy, or interesting...one may never know.)

i like the cover except for the funky mascara used on Alice. that is what creeps me. don't know if i'd buy it, but i'd love to see the illustrations.

Jennifer G. said...

Not for me! Nothing will ever replace the cover of my old Weekly Reader Classics edition in my heart.

Tina said...

It's a little creepy, but I luv the artwork. I picked it up the first day it came out.
