Friday Favorites-Metafiction

In meta-fiction, the book talks about itself. There are many wonderfully funny picture books being published that use meta-fiction well.

 

In Papa Bear's Page Fright by Wade Bradford, Papa gets nervous when he realizes he is in a book.

In Blue Chicken by Deborah Freedman we see what happens when a well-meaning chicken runs amok in an illustrator's workspace.

Throughout Where Is Bear? by Jonathan Bentley, the reader helps search for a very visible bear.
