Give this tool a try.
Wordle creates "word clouds" based on whatever you give it, and the results are surprisingly beautiful.
Just like tag clouds, the words used most frequently are given the biggest typeface, but you can control the font, the color, and the orientation of the words. Here's one for
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
Here's
Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird.
And here's the complete text of
Star Wars: The New Essential Chronology.
UPDATE: At JMMC's request, here's the complete text of the
original Essential Chronology. Pretty similar, but "Calrissian" pops.
(Thanks to Bully's
Comics Oughta Be Fun for turning me on to this find!)
