Chainsawed children's picture book for class assignment. |

For a class assignment, the professor gave me permission to chainsaw a children's book. "Pocahontas" seemed almost pre-satirized, but I decided to give it a shot. |

On the face of it, the concept seems childish, but I have to admit that reading the book was a guilty pleasure. It's very funny. |

Thanks! The idea was that both the Disney Pocahontas and the Chief Illiniwek at UI games were ridiculous stereotypes. So why not take it to the point of absurdity? |
