This first link is really the storybook that provided most of the inspiration for my project idea. I enjoy how this one delivered its message as if you were the character going through the story yourself. The introduction did a great job of explaining the intent, but after wards the storybook kind of fell off. However, I feel that this storybook overall could have developed further into something that had a bit more continuity. Overall I found this design easy to navigate.

After reading the introduction of this storybook I wanted to read more of the post. I thought it was a cool idea to look at a figure that was supposed to bring such joy to people in a tragic light.This storybook did a good job of filling out its content. This story book also provided some interesting images to look at at the end of each page in it. One of my favorite pictures from it is here:

This was the initial storybook that I clicked on. It helped me to understand what the project was exactly, as well as provided an interesting story to begin reading. I enjoyed the idea of providing such a major character his own outlet of sorts in the form of a diary. It really makes you wonder if they would have actually kept track of their own thoughts like that. I found this story book to be the most complete of the three that I have linked. It also stuck with its diary theme throughout in such a manner that it kind of felt Ravana may have actually written in this diary.
I am so glad you looked at that yaksha project, Stephan! The yakshas are these nature spirits, some of them friendly, some of them not so much. The god of wealth, Kubera, is king of the yakshas, and he is the half-brother of the main villain you will meet, Ravana, when you start reading the Ramayana epic; that is the Ravana in that third project. He is intense!
ReplyDeleteFor the images and links, take a look at this page for some tips on how to make that work; with the images, it's important to use the upload option to get the image to display, and for the links, it is a big help if you type link text instead of just pasting in the address. You can see some step by step info here for both the images and links (each web platform is kind of different in how that works):

Oh, I forgot to mention: since you are into music, you might want to look at this Storybook also. She embedded music videos in the pages to go with the stories:
