I decided to take this task from different perspective. My aim was to create 8 pages little book about myself. I thought I could say something about what is important about the books to me. What qualities the book brings to my life . I had the number of pages from 1 till 8 , therefore the  number of page represents the importance of illustrations to me. My way of thinking was to open and close this little book with two the most important things about the book to me. Therefore, the most important page is number 1 and number 8.

Pages:





























Individual illustrations and pages




 Page 1 - " Imagination "


Imaginations is the page number 1 that opens the book . this is the most important page for me as the book has the power  develop the imagination when we are kids. I use to love to escape from the normal, ordinary world into my imagination with the book that I was reading.  


I created the illustration completely not real to me.  The dancing and running away characters appeared on this illustration.  







Page 2 - " Illustration "

Page number 2 tell us a story about the power of illustration. The illustration may by about anything in the book, the number of illustration may be vary, however the quality of illustration is very important to me.







Page 3 - " Emotions "


 

Number 3 says about the emotions that the book may brings to our life. I love the book that can makes me cry , laugh and frighten me a bit .  







Page 4 - " Font "


Number 4 is the page that I called the FONT with the WRITTEN WORD . Written word is very important as it may tell us many things about our culture and history of our language.








Page 5 -" Time with your parent "



Page 5 brings up the good memories to me about my childhood, when my dad uses to read me a book about dwarfs and some little girl.  I love this memory as It helped me to respect books more as the can bond the family.







Page 6 - " Information"










Page 7 - " Fun time "


Fun time is the page number 7 . This is the time when we spent with the book when we are kids . It helps us to be creative as well spent some time on our own.








Page 8 - " Kwnoledge "


The last 8 page is the most important after the 1 . The power of book is the power of knowledge that makes us more intelligent.
