I’m cleaning up my book shelf and this is one book from childhood I always keep around. A sad book with beautiful illustrations. I should re-read it.

Haven't read it since I was 11, so not sure if it holds up, but this book had a hold on my lil middle school heart. I re-read it so many times, my copy was tattered!
I remember also liking Island of the Blue Dolphins when we read that in school!

When I was 7 years old I sat down in what I think was the children's section of the library near my school. I had a giant book in my hands, and by giant I don't mean it had a lot of pages, but it was just very wide and long to hold. It started off very liminal, just giant pictures that filled the page. There was a person in the shadows, and they were trying to get away from a larger creature- everything was black and white and they escaped through a crack or opening in the wall. They appear in this large cityscape, where you can see the entire city in one shot, with buildings stacked on eachother and an almost doctor suess feel about them. Now we have color, and we see kind but strange people, with unusual fruits and alarming pets. I don't think a single word was uttered throughout the entire book. What is this books name?!?! Was it even real?? It feels like a fever dream but I know I'm not making this up- but I've been searching for it for years with no luck. Help!! All I know is the drawing style was similar to this I think??
