Book Making for Kids!

Step 5Fit Your Cover

Fit Your Cover
Remember in high school when you had to make book covers for your text books out of old paper bags or the crappy paper they sold in the school store?  You never thought that skill would come in handy, but lo and behold 20 years later, it works.

Figure out how much of the old cover you want showing and wrap a piece of paper around that to get your cover.  We wanted a little bit of the old cover to stick out.

IMPORTANT - Once you get your cover on the way you want it, you can either a.) leave it there or b.) take it off.  If you choose to take it off, make sure that you label it with front / back & top and bottom.  I built two books and did all four covers backwards.  I fixed it with some customizations and lots of glue.  A simple dot in pencil to show the top would have saved some time and little kid heartache.
