Editing the front cover and adding more to the inside of my book

Daisy Jackson / 09/03/2023

Today I decided to make some alterations as well as adding more to the book - this includes more text and more official images to find Moe.

When creating the inside and looking at everything I have produced, I noticed how my front cover did not have a spine. This is important for books so I decided to alter my design slightly. I am very happy with how everything has turned out! It looks very professional.

I like adding additional illustrations which communicate the text. I am very happy with these images. For some reason it was hard to come up with! I think this is because I had to dumb it down a lot.

I am unsure if I like this page or not. This is not a bad thing as at a later date I can correct this. I do love the text though as it fits with what it is communicating.


I am happy with the turnout of this page. I think everything has came along rather smoothly.

It is important to note I slightly altered the background leaves to a slight shade of green. 


With this page I originally tried to create a rainbow out of the frogs. Unfortunately it sounded better in my head! No harm in trying though... The reason I do not like this design is due to how all over the place it is. It also did not create a nice curve without the frogs fully defying gravity. I acknowledge that this is a children's book but I would like to maintain some sort of accuracy - especially due to it being a children's book.



These were experimental pages. I love the connection on the right hand page to the actual name and front cover of the book. It brings everything together nicely!


In the end I went with this design. I might possibly change my mind on this as the other one being more over the place, communicates a more playful vibe which I may be more drawn to.

After this I created two more official 'Find Moe' pages:



I am very happy with how these turned out! The child is being educated on the different shades of green as well as learning facts relating to that shade.
