You have two options to complete this class project:

Design the book I used in this course (Fairy Tales by the Brothers Grimm).
Pick any book that you like and design your own version of it.

In any case I would like to see original and unique designs. Use the instructions and techniques covered in this course for reference only, don't feel restricted that you have to recreate my version.

Having said that if you prefer to stick to what is covered you will find all the necessary assets included as downloadables below. If you choose this route, here is what you will need to get started:

copy.zip (various versions of the manuscript)
images.zip (illustrations, drop caps - you will need relink these assets if you wish to use the downloadable InDesign files provided)
scripts.zip (custom JavaScripts)

Feel free to create your own illustrations or generate them with your preferred tool if you want to make your book more unique.

Download the books.zip if you are planning to practice the techniques covered in this project on other books or visit the Gutenberg website and download your preferred literary work.

Once you are done, export the entire book as a PDF (pages as spreads ideally to make it easier to view online) and submit it for review. I will aim to provide feedback as soon as I have time. I can't wait to see your book!

Good luck and have fun designing!
