Ten quick workshop modules for designing and making books as objects whose form follows their content.

Children make up stories every day, but here is a chance to write them down and turn them into books in an aesthetically pleasing way, with a coherent visual identity, by exploring various hands-on techniques. This book provides sources and artistic references, among them graphic designers, painters, illustrators, visual artists (Bruno Munari, Saul Steinberg, Paul Cox, Kveta Pakovska, Seymour Chwast, Jean-Paul Goude, etc.), and traditions from around the world (India, South America, Japan, etc.)
Suggestions leave room for individual freedom of expression in each of the proposed modules, sources of endless exploration to which children respond with spontaneity.
