Here are my double page spreads for instructions on how to plant carrot seeds. I decided to use a style in between a story book and a reference book, to try and capture a quality from each. I have used simple, child like illustrations that are easy to follow. I have also use a san serif typeface with i think is more appropriate for younger children who are learning to read.


I've tried to lay out the typography to fit in with the flow of the illustrations and highlighted key words. I feel this approach can appeal to both children and adults. I love the style that Eric Carle uses in his works, this has given me some inspiration for this. I like how he uses clear backgrounds and minimal text with ridged, irregular illustrations.
