Little Lit

Cover of the second volume of Little Lit. Artwork by Charles Burns.

Little Lit is a comic book anthology series published by Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist, Art Spiegelman and New Yorker art editor, Françoise Mouly. The couple had collaborated previously on RAW in the 1980s.

Each volume of Little Lit is a collection of original comics created expressly for children, authored by major cartoonists and literary figures. Contributors include authors such as Paul Auster, Neil Gaiman, and David Sedaris; cartoonists such as Daniel Clowes, Tony Millionaire, and Chris Ware; and children's writers such as William Joyce, Barbara McClintock and Lemony Snicket (Daniel Handler). Volume one includes a vintage cartoon by Walt Kelly.

The series began publication in 2000 with a 64-page hardcover book, Little Lit: Folklore & Fairy Tale Funnies. This was followed by two subsequent volumes, Strange Stories for Strange Kids, and It Was a Dark and Silly Night... The third volume deviated slightly from previous versions, reducing the page count to 48 pages.

A smaller-sized paperback book called Big Fat Little Lit was published in 2006 by Puffin Books. This volume is a 144-page collection of selected comics from the first three HarperCollins books.
