Illustrated Books: Tell Stories Without Words

“It's time to share your final result! What joy! I know that this project has taken time, a lot of effort and dedication, but it was worth it. I hope you have learned and enjoyed the process and the result. I will love to see your story, the one you have created from the encounter between an animal and an object. What great serendipity!
