Our Researchs

We Are Extremely Very Good Recyclers By Lauren Child





The quirky mixed media artwork, combining photography, watercolors, and collage results in vibrant and highly entertaining illustrations. The characters, all drawn as a child might, with almost stick figures and large heads exhibit lots of emotion. We decided to use this book as a guide as this book is a very good book. It teaches children to recycle and the usage of the colour is vibrant. We decided to try out on it and follow. We wanted to create a book that is like this book which teaches some moral and about life. We also tried to follow the usage of colour as vibrant colour tends to attract childrens attention and it lead them to be very curious and interested in it.




We also found some research on pop up books.
