Books like Re-Zoom by Istvan Banyai

Beginning with a boat in the distance, the scene transforms into a magazine picture, then into the hand holding it, and finally into the boy who owns the book. The book encourages viewers to observe how visual perception shifts when the scale of the scene changes and to imagine the narrative that unfolds between the pictures.
