Illustrator Andrew Kolb has taken one of the most played songs in the past decade and transformed it into a vintage lyrical storybook.
The song Andrew Kolb chose was Telephone, which is one the most recognized songs by the pop sensation Lady Gaga. The styling in this lyrical novel is a humorous twist on the modern hit. The pictures, colors and typeset make this seem like an old children's book. I just wouldn't recommend this as a bedtime story.
