City By Numbers

Title: City By Numbers
Author: Stephen T. Johnson
Illustrator: Stephen T. Johnson
Publisher: Viking
Copyright: 1998

This number book uses New York City as a basis for displaying the numbers 1 – 21.

Comments:

In this wordless book, Stephen T. Johnson uses beautiful photo-realistic paintings to display the numbers from one to twenty-one. The trick for the reader is to find the numbers hidden in the architecture and infrastructures of outdoor places and public spaces. Celebrating the lines, curves, and shapes of the numbers, Johnson turns regular numbers into a work of art. With such brilliant use of color, line, shading, dimension, and realism, one can not help but be awestruck by Johnson’s work.

Genre: NF (Non-fiction)
