Susan Hall has selected over 500 picture storybooks that effectively illustrate satire, allusion, pun, imagery, paradox, simile, analogy, and other literary devices. A substantial portion of each volume is a detailed guide for finding appropriate examples. This guide is alphabetically arranged from "Allegory" to "Understatement" and describes the appropriate titles for each device. All entries include full bibliographic information, a plot summary, examples of the literary device, and other devices used in the book. Entries in volumes 2 and 3 indicate appropriateness of a title for older students, the art styles used in illustrations, and suggested curricular tie-ins.
