Children's Book Covers and Spread

School assignment based on Freya Littledale's 'Peter and the North Wind'.

These are the actual project pieces for the character designs I uploaded earlier.

Book synopsis: This is a charming tale about a boy who must venture to see the North Wind to get back all the flour he blew away. The North Wind gives Peter magical gifts in exchange, which are stolen from Peter by a greedy InnKeeper every time Peter stays at his inn on the way home. He returns to the North Wind to complain and is given a new gift, only to have it stolen again. This happens three times before the North Wind gives Peter a stick whose only magical quality is that it beats the living bejesus out of whomever it's master tells it to. When the Innkeeper tries to steal this gift, the stick attacks and Peter is given his stolen gifts back and lives happily ever after.





Look at those info flaps go.
We were required to have an example of the front and back covers in a book jacket format with information flaps and everything.
