While prepping for the Unnecessary Picture Book Sequels Contest (the results of which we will begin revealing any day now), I remembered a feature that I'd been wanting to do for a while: Redesigning classic picture book titles as grown-up novels. I think it's because I've spent too much time stalking Book Design Review and other such sites that appeal to an amateur dork like me.

What a fun idea! I like the quote you've added, gives it a nice punch.
Thanks, Mo... and i had fun checking out your site. Good luck with the wedding planning and congrats on grad school!
I like this! I'm reminded of the film trailers that were respliced so that the Shining became a comedy and Mary Poppins was a horror flick. Here are some other titles I'm throwing your way, in case they spark your imagination:
There's a Nightmare in My Closet
(Either Stephen King fare or something along the lines of Mrs. Doubtfire)
Guess How Much I Love You (sequel to Nightmare in My Closet, definitely a horror novel)
Once Upon a Potty (memoir)
This works TOO WELL. I'm scared.
Thanks for the suggestions, Farida!
And Tanita... be afraid, be very afraid. (Not sure what that means, but I had to say it.)
