A trip to London signified our mandatory visit to the London Book Fair, for research for our projects. I found the day interesting as it allowed me to understand the variation in recent and popular children's books. I found this trip linked a lot with my previous research at the beginning of the module. Here are some examples of some stalls and children's books that caught my eye:
 |
| Booki World's incorporation of digital media |
 |
| Baker & Taylor Publishing |
 |
| Old Pond Publishing |
 |
| Wonderful simplistic designs |
 |
| AzBooks |
 |
| Azbooks' examples of puppetry/cuddly toy books for younger children |
 |
| Azbooks' use of pop-up animals in books |
 |
| Incorporation of sound in books, realistic imagery |
 |
| Use of coloured paints to paint the story with - really love this idea as it fully involves the child, the story becomes part their's. This has some noticeable similarities to my designs. |
 |
| Pop-ups |
 |
| A book that turns into a mask - again, really involving the children with the book, fun activities! |
 |
| Intelligent use of layering pages in books - works great with Non-Fiction and Reference books. |
