Told in amusing rhyming verse and republished with all new illustrations.\n\nAnimal Snackers is the first book by Pratt Institute graduate Betsy Lewin (b. 1937). It was published with bread-dough animals (and ITC Souvenir and Cooper Black for the typography) by Dodd, Mead & Company in 1980.\n\nThe book was reissued by Henry Holt & Company in hardback in 2004, with revised text and new illustrations by the author, now rendered in brush and ink. Designer Patrick Collins used **Bonita** for the cover and the headings. Jim Parkinson’s all-caps face from 1996 is set on a bouncing baseline and with a subtle drop shadow. The rhymes are added in **Century Gothic**.\n\nShown here is an undated reissue by Scholastic, with unchanged design.\n\n\n\n\n_**Source: shop.scholastic.com **License: All Rights Reserved. _\n\n\n_**Source: shop.scholastic.com **License: All Rights Reserved. _\n\nThis post was originally published at Fonts In Use\n\n* * *",
