Create a Picturebook

My Picturebook

1.) Identify the image that in your opinion is the most effective in developing the story as a whole and explain why it was effective. In my opinion, I think the image of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Lion is the most effective image in developing the story as a whole. The line that is attached to this image reads "For a very special purpose." In the story of the Wizard of Oz, Dorothy's purpose is to find a way home but she had the power to go home whenever she wanted. She needed to learn that "if never searched for her heart's desire that she never had to look any further than her own back door."

2.)Did the image and written narrative interact in a way the created irony, metaphor and/or metonymy? The first image is ironic because the line from the poem is "Life is given to each human being," but the people in the image look "scared to death." The last image of a boy taking a selfie, this a metaphor. The line from the poem is "Must discover for himself."

3.) Explain how two or more elements in the illustration help support and develop the story. The looks in the characters eyes help support the development of the story. The illustrations do not exactly match the story but they help to create irony. The third image the character's facial expression shows her showing a surprised face as if she just heard a big secret. The line reads "This secret each human being."

4.) Identify two elements that are repeated throughout a majority of the images. Explain how these elements support the story. The use of facial expressions and colors are repeated throughout a majority of the images. All of the images are bright in color and bring out of the facial expressions of the characters.
