Before and After

Graphic artist Jean Jullien insightfully and comically depicts a set of clever and surprising before-and-after two-frame narratives, each progressed by a page turn. From pale skin to sunburned skin, dirty to clean, long hair to short hair (to long again), Jullien masterfully builds anticipation and a satisfying resolution with each pairing. Striking the perfect balance of predictability and unexpectedness, this book will leave readers in wonder as they flip back and forth. A pitch-perfect follow-up to Jullien's groundbreaking hit, this book showcases his popularity as one of today's most popular satirical artists. Clever page design inspires imagination, anticipation, prediction, and surprise. The thick, sturdy board pages are perfect for little hands to hold, turn, tap, and flip back and forth on their own. Features a surprising double gatefold.
