The revolutionary poet Vladimir Mayakovsky’s picturebook Whatever Page You Look At, There’s an Elephant or a Lioness (1928), playfully welcomes children into a world of the book as it self-consciously confuses the space between fiction (the page) and the real world (animals). Illustrated by the avant-garde artist Kirill Zdanevich, it shares many features with avant-garde graphic design, typography, and illustration.
