Storybook Favorites

After browsing through numerous storybooks, there were many of them that caught my interest. These are the three that I think were interesting.

The first storybook that caught my attention was Karma for Kids. The title is what I noticed first. It just sounded interesting so I wanted to see what it was. I have children and always watch my nieces and nephews and so the introduction made me laugh. I have been in the similar scenario of having children fighting and trying to figure out what the best way to have them get along would be. I think the introduction was well written and it made me want to read more about the stories of karma.

The second storybook was Ravana's Diary. I like the idea of using a diary to tell stories. It is able to describe how the writer of the diary views situations and is able to show their true feelings. It is all from their point of view which always makes an interesting story. I also like how the background looks like an open book. I think this layout helps you to feel like you are in fact reading someone's diary. The introduction helps to show how the storybook is going to be. It starts with Ravana's wife who wants to show that Ravana isn't just the evil person that everyone thinks he is. I am completely unfamiliar with what the storybook is based off of but it still seems to be one that I would want to read.

The last storybook that I am going to talk about is Rama vs Sita. This was the random storybook that was listed on the storybook page so obviously I am going to look at it. I like the idea of using a trial to tell the stories. It gives a unique perspective and in a way forces the characters to defend their actions in the stories. I think it sounds like it would be a really good storybook.
