I have discovered that in order to WRITE a book, you have to be a skilled writer. While I am comfortable writing...writing a book in the simple precise manner necessary for it to be good for children is a whole other story. I humbly apologize to trees everywhere for the unbelievable amount of wasted paper I used in writing this story out. I can however manage to illustrate a book with a decent sequencing of images that conveys my idea. The story focuses creating positive coping skills for common childhood fears. It centers on a young girl that confronts her fears, and that the empowerment of overcoming her fear is crucial in her growth as a maturing child. Her fears are the standard fare of: growing up, monsters, being alone, being lost, strangers, the dark, and spiders...Temporarily entitled "Home On My Own": Here are the final sketches in sequence, and one page finalized into full color. |
