Little Lit

A compact but influential anthology series from the early 2000s, Little Lit was published by Seuil and curated by Art Spiegelman, who also contributed artwork throughout its two-issue run. Each volume gathered an eclectic mix of celebrated cartoonists and children's book creators to offer a sophisticated, whimsical take on storytelling for young readers. The series stands out for bridging the gap between avant-garde comics and mainstream children's literature, showcasing Spiegelman's belief that the medium could be both playful and artistically ambitious. Its brief lifespan belies its lasting impact as a showcase for cross-generational, boundary-pushing comics.
