Ok, so in my Creative Writing 1 class, we were assigned to write and draw a children's book. This is my layout for the pages and cover, so please keep reading so that this makes sense to you! Keep in mind that the project is supposed to be aimed at 3-5 year olds, so keep all the "this looks gay" comments to yourself

MAIN PLOT:
The main story starts as Tahoe draws something on paper. Since he's an artist, he enjoys drawing, but he thinks his art isn't that great. As the story progresses, his friends try to cheer him up by showing off their talents/hobbies and in the meantime, they hint that practicing will help Tahoe improve his talent. Eventually, Tahoe practices and draws an amazing drawing at the end of the book.

The assignment required us to have both an academic and a life lesson. My life lesson in the story is "practice makes perfect" and the academics is exposing kids to different hobbies/talents.

WHAT'S ON THIS LAYOUT:
This side of the layout shows the front and back cover, front insert pages, dedication page, interior title page, and the first half of the story until page 10 (the rest of the layout is coming up soon on DA).

STORYLINE ON THIS LAYOUT:
(Follow this section by referring to the page numbers in the storyline)
1.) This is Tahoe when he's drawing something and thinks to himself that his art stinks. He then gets depressed.
2.)Tahoe's friend, Miko the Fox, comes over and tries to cheer up Tahoe by offering to show him his newest dance.
3.) Miko does his dance and Tahoe asks how he learned to do it.
4.) Miko then says that he learned it by practicing. He then says good bye and leaves.
5.) Tahoe's other friend, Vincent the Deer, comes over and tried to cheer Tahoe up by showing him a football drill he learned out on the field.
6.) Vincent shows the drill and Tahoe asks how he learned how to do it.
7.) Vincent tells him that he learned it by practicing. He then says goodbye and leaves.
8.) Tahoe meditates on what he's seen his friends do so far and ponders if practicing will help him get better at art.
9.) Tahoe begins to cry because he keeps thinking to himself that he won't get better no matter what.
10.) Tahoe's friend, Lilly the Otter, sees him crying and tries to cheer him up by showing him how fast she can swim in her local swim meets at school.
