Bruce Springsteen Setting

The font of the text on the front cover, and throughout the book for that matter, is in an untidy scrawl that is both important - in that it is in a bold font and is a demanding colour (either black or white) - and is informal, imperfect, personal and human - in that it is handwritten. These aspects combine to show the picture-book

Some people are born to become legends, Bruce Springsteen is one of them. From the second he was born and through his younger years everyone knew he was destined for something bigger than a regular nine to five life, they just didn’t realize the magnitude of what was to come.

Bruce Springsteen is a legendary singer and artist. Bruce had mentioned many times during interviews that one of the things that was not popular in his household was him. His father disliked how he was trying to become a singer, but Bruce says that his relationship with his father had helped him become a better singer; he wrote many songs about him. Something else that help Bruce write his music was Elvis Presley. When Bruce saw Elvis perform on a show, he instantly fell in love. In the New Jersey Shore, he would play at different places, but he would always pay his musicians equally, giving him the name “The Boss”.

Initially, the cover and title page of the book both play a key role in the layout of the story. On the cover, the artistic style of the illustration looks like a cartoon and a painting. This style is very realistic because of the situation portrayed on the cover; yet playful at the same time because of its comical vibe. The cover also looks three-dimensional and the author seems to be using a straightforward perspective of art. This idea is led be true because the child, wall, and table with the fishbowl are all facing towards the reader. The title is also as large in font as the child and fish bowl are. This shows that the cover is relatively proportional in both text and pictures.

I absolutely love the text, A Bad Case of Stripes. The illustrators use of bright and vibrant colors have always appealed to me. While reading this text, I’m amazed at how the illustrations match certain details of the story perfectly. For example, at school Camilla and her classmates cite “the Pledge of Allegiance, Camilla’s stripes turned red, white, and blue…” The illustrations support the text perfectly, as Camilla is shown with red, white, and blue stripes. This reminds me of a statement in the textbook, “The picture book constructs an intertextuality between the textual and visual representations: the illustrations and text convey the relationship between the pictures and words” (Botelho & Rudman, 2009, pg. 167).

My life is clearly represented by the symbolic choices I made. Everything I drew means something important to me. The CN Tower and the running man that I drew on the bottom portion of the page are excellent examples of this. The running man represents my passion of running and desire to chase after my dreams. The CN Tower represents the city of Toronto and the place in which I was born and raised in.

Duluth Minnesota, May 24th 1941 Robert Allen Zimmerman (Bob Dylan) was born. 69 Years and over 45 albums later Bob Dylan has completely altered the face of popular music since his debut as a fresh faced folk singer in 1962.
