Review: Brothers at Bat: The True Story of an Amazing All-Brother Baseball Team


Brothers at Bat: The True Story of an Amazing All-Brother Baseball Team
Brothers at Bat: The True Story of an Amazing All-Brother Baseball Team by Audrey Vernick

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



The draftsman style of black chalk illustration harking to H.A. Rey or Syd Hoff. It gives the book a nostalgic feel, and offers some unusual style in the form of pastel and painted backgrounds. The book shows an interesting variety of page layouts, often moving into a sequential art style with lots of white space (informational). The designer got no credit, but this book owes a lot to the design.
