Disturbingly Distorted Book Blogs

The Dirty Library Blog Turns Classic Books Inappropriate

— July 27, 2013 — Pop Culture
Everyone grew up reading the classic books of their childhood generation, from Goodnight Moon to Cat in the Hat. Tumblr blog Dirty Library takes these classic books and renders them inappropriately dirty by changing the title, cover image and even the book's plot line. The results are a slew of parody-inspired newly formed classic children's books.

The Dirty Library blog does a great job at being satirical while still maintaining the recognizable parts of the original classic books. Each of the books that have been rendered "dirty" are drawn by a child's hand with the added changes. For example, the popular Goodnight Moon cover has been updated to feature the image of a naked bum in the window of the green room and Alice in Wonderland has been changed to Alice in a Wonderbra.
Trend Themes
1. Satirical Book Parodies - Opportunity for creating satirical parodies of classic books by changing titles, cover images, and plot lines to add humor and new perspectives.
2. Inappropriate Content in Familiar Media - Opportunity for creating content that takes familiar and innocent media, like classic children's books, and transforms them into something unexpected and provocative.
3. Visual Storytelling Through Hand-drawn Art - Opportunity for using hand-drawn art to visualize and reinterpret stories, adding a unique and personal touch to classic book illustrations.
Industry Implications
1. Publishing - Disruptive innovation opportunity for publishing companies to create new revenue streams by publishing satirical parodies of classic books or creating platforms to showcase user-generated content that transforms familiar media.
2. Art and Illustration - Opportunity for artists and illustrators to explore the realm of visual storytelling by hand-drawing and reimagining classic book covers, offering a fresh and unique perspective on well-known stories.
3. Entertainment and Media - Opportunity for entertainment and media companies to venture into producing and distributing content that plays with the boundaries of appropriateness, attracting audiences seeking unconventional and subversive interpretations of familiar media.
