Wriggle and Roar by Julia Donaldson, Illustrated by Nick Sharratt

This is a book analysis of the children's book Wriggle and Roar by Julia Donaldson. This analysis will help me to make my own book cover a success as I can use the conventions and some of Nick Sharratts illustrating skills. I really like the cover of this book as it is bright and colourful. Although I hope to use alot of colour on my cover, I will probably use more pastel, toned- down colours to add to the girly, fairytail theme.

Leaves

This image was  originally just one black and white leaf. I saved the image from a blog and edited it using the programme Illustrator. I duplicated the layer of the first leaf over and over and arranged them into an effective layout on the page. I changed the sizes and colours using various tools and drew around the outline in different shades of the colour green.

Tool Kit

This tool kit was produced using Adobe Illustrator. I got this image from another blog, however it was originally black and white before I edited and improved it. I tried to use a tool to make it look realistic and effecive. This task helped me to become more confident with using the programme but I have since decided I much prefer using Photoshop instead.
