Design a Board Book

Taking inspiration from books like the Little Miss Austen collection, design a board book that is based on a classic novel.  Choose a novel from a list and read it.  Locate the key points/characters that would be translatable to a children's novel.  Gather inspiration images from online of illustrations of different scenes from the book and create your own images.  You can use the images and alter them so that they are yours or you can draw your own.

This project can be altered for a younger age.  Using one story, as the teacher find key characters and descriptions of the characters.  Assign each student a character and have them draw them and write a little explanation for their reasons for how they look.  As a class create the story of the book, it doesn't have to follow the plot of the original story.
