How to make a Tunnel Book

Step 5 Make a cover

When all finished you might want to make a cover. You can do that by cutting out two squares of matteboard the exact size of your book. But between the two squares leave a little space for the spine area. You might want to make it a little bigger than necessary because over the time that your book sits on the shelf the accordion might spring up a little. On one square glue a creative design for the cover if you want. Then on the side that your cover is make two scores where the spine is so it will fold around the book easily. Then turn it over and on the back of the other square glue your entire book.

There you have it... .You've just completed you're tunnel book!!
