So for a summer holiday project with the kids, we thought of making our own book.

We thought of a storyline, we had a lot of fairy-tale influences like Peter Pan and a princess loosing her shoe ;-), scene’s to record, what to wear and look for place’s to make the pictures, previous photo’s we could use and attributes to use. When we had it all figured out, on a sunny day, we went to the nearby woods (Posbank) and had a fun day of dressing up and acting out all the scenes and taking the pictures.

After reviewing and selecting the pictures the next day, we started to write and adjust the story according to the pictures.

Finally after some days of fun work, we finished our book. We sent it to the printer, and a 1-2 weeks later had it in the mail.

All the kids now have a copy in their trunk or on the shelf and we regularly take it out and read it with them.
