Class: Publications and Layout
Objective: Choose an author, create 3 book covers. This is one of the three that I chose (the others are still in progress). Roald Dahl, author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach was also a great poet. Although the audience of his novels and poems tend to be children, Dahl took a darker and yet humorous approach to some of the famous folk tales that we are all familiar with. I chose to design three books of poetry by Dahl, each with a different folk tale as the theme. The comic book portrayal of the characters helps to describe their personality and actions in Dahl's versions of each story. 

Here is the link to the poem Litte Red Riding Hood and the Wolf
