Story Writing
When creating an imaginative story there needs to be a good comprehension of how a story is developed. With this project I plan on working out the common writing methods to a story. One of more favoured books of my own childhood was the Firebird by the ladybird book series, this small book successfully managed to have a large story take place and have the illustrations complement the events going on seamlessly. Both the writing and imagery should be able to fit together with a story, even better if they do not require to be codependent on each other to achieve a story.
The next children's book I plan on looking at is Billy Twitter and his blue whale problem. This book is lacking in the writing area but it portrays a tale through the lovely illustrations. These illustrations have a certain depth about them and a sense of life seen more often with the rise of digital art. The illustrations manipulate how the characters look so they can have a unique style. Typical anatomy and expressions are altered dramatically by the artist Adam Rex and I personally find the approach inspiring on how far you can change real life people for the sake of style.
Lastly the book called 'Vicky's new hat' another one of my childhood stories. This book knows how to create another fantasy world to explore with anthropomorphic animal similar to Beatrix Potter without making it seem unusual. I also plan on researching Beatrix Potter and other fairy tale classics and how well they tell a story that younger audiences will be able to enjoy.
