After browsing through the different storybooks, I found
many examples to choose from in both the Indian Epics, and Myth-Folklore class.
Each one very unique even when some of the previous students had chose the same
topics to write over. In the Indian
Epics section, I found two on karma that were interesting, “Sweet Dreams are
Made of These: Karma Bedtime Stories”, and “The Karma Times: I See Everything”. What made “Sweet Dreams are Made of These: Karma
Bedtime Stories” stand out, were the graphics that were used. Rachel did a good job researching for graphics
were fun and animated. The graphics not
only related to the stories, and they were age appropriate for the storybook
especially for the stories of Christian and Layton. I can tell she put a lot of time and effort
into her storybook, and it was a good read. I really enjoyed her background of the animated sheep. Throughout her storybook, she continuously stayed on topic,
and from the beginning as a reader I knew what to expect. I also liked “The
Ramayana Museum of Art” by Kathryn.
Instead of having a light-hearted story, she set the tone to be quite
dark and suspenseful, and right off the back I expected that tone to be shared
in the following stories. The background and colors from both
of these storybooks gave me ideas as to what kind I should be looking for and what topic I need to choose. I notice that both storybooks were similar in
set up, and they all possessed a navigation pane for the readers.
One of the ones I enjoyed the was “How I Met Your Mother”
by Rachel. It was comical, and I love that she used the title is of the hit television
show, as well as the “legend-Dairy” quote. Lastly, “The “Bad” Guys…Their Side of the Story”
by Stacy was interesting. I liked how she made
the stories into therapy sessions being told, very creative! The photos that she
used to depict the characters are not how I pictured them in my mine, but it
was nice to see her perspective. Reuben
is a bit scary looking if I might add.
