challenge = IDEA

The greatest challenge of it all was to arrive with the book. I've started off with Gabriel Garcia de Marquez and I moved to Russian literature, i.e. Bulgakov's "Master and Margarita" and from there to Italian "The Castle of Crossed Destinies" by Italo Calvino.

However, I knew for sure that I wanted to have illustrations in my book. Writing my own, was a little scary thing for me since I am not that strong in English writing.Writing book in another language was an option too, but I want this book to be relevant to my audience, which is at this moment is my book design class and Reg.

So, I've started off with brainstorming, where I was trying to connect certain things together and figure out what text will be the best for the audience and me.

Based on simple brainstorming and further research, I have finally arrived to a conclusion that I wanted the book to be:

1. Well-known
2. Fiction
3. Unusual, unique
4. Open to interpretation

At the end I arrived to a conclusion that book "Little Prince" fits all of my criteria very well. It is well-known; it is fiction; it is unusual and unique in its ideas and style; and it is very open to different interpretations.
