Here is the work in progress image of Brody on the cover. It’s not finished yet but thought you might want to see it so far. Since it’s still getting worked on it would be best not to share just yet.
Updated pages based on notes from last meeting. The page numbers in green represent good/approved. I’ve made some minor position changes to text placement, changed to font ‘Sweater School’ and other fonts for the title. Worked out some of the backgrounds a bit further spacing them out as well as the grocery store pages.

Updated thumbnail story sketches.
Thumbnail booklet accordion method: Print and cut pages into two story pages. Only cut the front and back page apart and the rest of the pages are folded in half. To help crease edges use a small ruler or bone tool. Tape each page together edge to edge then trim off excess tape and continue with remaining pages. Once done you will have a continuous string of pages that will fold up into the booklet. Put the booklet under a few heavy books to help flatten it down.
Thumbnail booklet, glue method: Print and cut pages into two story pages. Only cut the front and back page apart and the rest of the pages are folded in half. To help crease edges use a small ruler or bone tool. Glue pages in order back to back and smooth each page down with a ruler or bone tool. Once all the pages are glued together put the mini booklet under heavy books to help flatten.
