Roald Dahl

Thoughts so far on illustrated type for the books:

James and the Giant Peach: insects biting in to a peach spelling out the title


The BFG: It is about a big giant and dreams....I am planning on drawing a massive hand with tiny bottles of different size in it spelling out the title 


Fantastic Mr Fox: Im really struggling with this one, the most obvious thing I could so is draw the tail of a fox and have it spell out the title.I think I will do this but I will have is so there is a massive den made of twigs with their tails hanging out spelling out the title


Jack and the Bean Stalk : I love drawing twisting winding branches and roots so I am going to do the same with the bean stalk spelling out the title.


Little Red Riding Hood:  I havnt given much thought to this one as yet but I am thinking about using the hood and maybe the basket she brings to her grandmother and the content of the basket could spell out the title, or have a red hooded figure and the trees spell out the title.




I am trying to stick to a theme so that they all look similar and a set. I want an large object (peach, hand) and small objects to spell out the title (insects, bottles).
