Shepard Fairey Designs For Penguin Books.

Shepard Fairey designed 2 new covers for George Orwell's classic books, 1984 and Animal Farm. I think this is awesome on two levels. The first being both designs look rad and the second being this will probably get more kids into reading these books. I am not saying he's going to increase the literacy rate in America by the thousands, but if I was a kid and saw one of these books in my school library I would definitely be more inclined to pick one up and read it. Hopefully we see more artists get asked to do this and that gets more kids reading.
