Storybook Favorites

There are many interesting Storybooks to comb through. All were written in different styles, and formatted differently, but all were interesting in their own right.

The first one I liked was Lives of Lakshmi. I loved that they started the introduction with a picture to set the visual, and set up a reason behind telling the story " to remind you who you are". As someone who isn't familiar with the story, it sets you up like your Laksmi learning about yourself. It starts painting a picture of the narrator and the point they hope to make throughout the story. The layout threw me off slightly, just because of the tabs being at the top, but it was easy to adjust to.

The second one that stood out was Music Stories. I personally have always loved music, so the title caught my attention from the start. This is another story I'm not familiar with, so I liked how the home page gave some general information to know before the reader delves into the story. Going into the Introduction, it sets a scene. The visual helps to understand what's going on, but leaves it open to pull the reader in more. That's similar to the 1st story discussed in catching attention, but it does it in an entirely different way. The layout was pretty much the same as the first, so not many issues, it was easy to navigate.

The last one was my favorite The Cat Gods & The Tales of Heraclaws. I am a huge cat lover (I have 6) so it definitely caught my attention immediately. I loved how it started out similar to a good book. You just want to snuggle up in a comfortable chair and just enjoy it. It paint's a scene that is easily understood, and I could picture it like an opening scene of a movie. It was a very entertaining read. I liked the formatting on this the most. The tabs on the left, felt more like a table of contents to me, which helped with the book feeling.

All were very neat to look at!
