This picture book biography's deadpan text and masterfully varied comic-book design outline Keaton's life from birth through his early days in Hollywood. On some pages, narrow horizontal frames show a perspective differing from the main illustration; on others side-by-side vertical frames propel the action. An author's note invites further exploration of the man and his movies. Bib.
