Illustrations look so much better and still leave lots up to your imagination. Photographs just seem to ruin the whole fiction element of the book. And I particularly hate when an old children's book set, for instance, in the 1950s is reprinted with a photograph of a child in a hoodie and trainers. It just totally wrecks the whole atmosphere and setting of the story.
