NYT Best Illustrated Books

Coming in this Sunday’s NYT Book Review — their selection of the ten best illustrated books (via Publishers Lunch). Only a few of the selections overlap with other lists.

We generally think of this list as being about childrens picture books, but there’s another kind of illustrated book out there, those in graphic format. This year’s list includes Tales from Outer Suburbia, a graphic format title that is shelved in YA by many libraries (although it appeals to a broader age range).

The only title that is not represented in most libraries is the pop-up book, White Noise.
