Everyone always says don’t judge a book by it’s cover. I’m sorry to say this, but I always judge a book by its cover (in the case of actual books not metaphorical ones). The presentation of something is everything. It gives you a clue as to what is inside. If someone takes the time to do it well there’s a good chance it’s worth your time.
These Leatherbound Classics are spot on. The typography and illustrative work is so lovely it hurts. To Kill a Mockingbird (one of my favorite books of all time) is definitely going on this years birthday wish list.
