Book Cover Art

Our son has been hard at work on a biography project on Mark Twain and during our research, I came across these new editions of the classics Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer and couldn't resist the watercolor silhouettes on the covers. They were released last month by Vintage Classics in honor of the 100th Anniversary of Mark Twain's death. You can get your copies here. A perfect summer read.

 

Since we're on the topic of book cover art, here's another of my current faves - Lucky Girls by Nell Freudenberger.
