The best one of the three. Love this series.

From hitRECord, the immensely popular open collaborative production company, and its founder, Golden Globe-nominated actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt, comes The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 1. The universe is not made of atoms; it’s made of tiny stories. To create The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 1, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, known within the hitRECord community as RegularJOE—directed thousands of collaborators to tell tiny stories through words and art. With the help of the entire creative collective, Gordon-Levitt culled, edited and curated over 8,500 contributions into this finely tuned collection of original art from 67 contributors. Reminiscent of the 6-Word Memoir series, The Tiny Book of Tiny Stories: Volume 1 brings together art and voices from around the world to unite and tell stories that defy size.

This one was a rec by Bookdepository. Yay. 

Edited by Joseph Gordon-Levitt (yes, the actor), it's a compilation of very short, tiny stories accompanied by illustrations. I really liked the style of the book, these short stories that say so much and the ilustrations are really cool. Reminds of the Santiago en 100 palabras project, and I've been a fan of that one for years.

Very, very quick read. Interesting juxtapositions of text and visuals, but it really does feel a little as though many of them are very self-consciously clever, if that makes sense. Like they're poised and ready to be praised for being so deep. 

(I'm sensitive to this as I'm hyper aware that some of my work feels this way!)

Some might make good posters, and I've no doubt of their popularity on tumblr, but I'm not sure I'd recommend the book as such.

Once again, super cute, but I can't make myself give this more than 3 stars.

I didn't read a physical copy. I listened to Jeffrey (GingerBookNerd on Youtube) instead!

I loved this book. Each page was a surprise, something different, something unexpected. There were only a few tiny stories that were forgettable, but there were others that I lingered on, returned to, and read the line or two once more. And I immediately thought of several people who would enjoy them.
