"What is the point of the (dead) pigeon book?"

That's what a friend of mine asked me when I told him about my book talk. It felt good to tell him this: Well, first of all, it's great for reluctant readers. You know, it's a book, but it doesn't have too many words on each page. And it's funny! And sinister! Also, it's an art book. Each gruesome page is designed by a different artist making it an awesome supplement to a modern American art class, or just a varied and interesting way to spend a rainy afternoon. Lastly (and my favorite thing) is that it shows how far one stupid idea can take you! A la Skulls, Canceled Flight is a perfect example how a silly, though creative idea, can turn into a book! Amazing!
