Listopia > Oh, the Books! Bookish Guide: Illustrated YA

Oh, the Books! Bookish Guides is a monthly recommendation feature in which we share books we love that fit a certain hard-to-find category. Since we're big fans of illustrated books (and art in general), we decided to choose Illustrated YA books for our May Bookish Guide. We're excited to highlight so many amazing books and works of art this month!

[The books in this list were all curated from our -- and your -- recommendations in our post on Oh, the Books! ]
