position Allsburg, the brothers separated in the images throughout the book, from a distorted perspective, and objects. In one image, the elder brother is sitting on a large chair, his face distorted by perspective. The younger brother is facing away from him hidden in a corner in his little world. In another image of the old brothers body acts as a barrier for us, his face naturally gravitate tois on the perspective of power up yet is connected to his body visually separated from him, which stuck with its frame in his arms or his younger brother in his little world.
