Sažetak
Simms Taback’ s picture book "Joseph Had a Little Overcoat" (1999) is analysed in terms of its realistic and fictional elements. Taback expands the main storyline with various additions and digressions, which are presented both by the verbal and the visual components of the picture book. The realistic and fictional planes are blended, which results in several metafictional elements.
