Manipulating digital images of animals in surreal environments, Steve Ouch created the visual wonderland of SteamPotVille, a children’s book with the attention-grabbing power of a magic-eye poster.
While the story of a world turned upside-down is sure to capture any kid’s imagination, it’s the fantastical fish-eye imagery that will keep you (and them) coming back. Each two-page spread is a detail-rich labor of love, with new elements revealing themselves on repeated reads.

You can also avoid Amazon and contribute to your community by going to Indiebound.org and purchasing the book from a local independent bookstore.
Steam Potville. Not a good choice for a children’s book. Probably going for the Smallville connection, but it’s just too close to being steaming pot(grass) as in boiling/bonging weed, in the cooking meth production. TeaKettleville, even Teapot Ville. Exercise a little generational discretion, before sending a subliminal entendre or not. Tks.

Yeah MA, boiled joints are the best!
I am actually more amazed at the stretch of a connection re: Indiebound.
I’m with MA. Clearly..this is not a children’s book.
