Each cover was designed in conjunction with what the topic of the book and the colors were coordinated to match the subject.

This is a Science Newsletter for Children between the ages of 8 to 12 years old. Considering my target audience would be for a younger generation, I decided to incorporate some fun and active illustrations to attract the attention of children and to identify the topics for each of the articles. Keeping the colors bright and colorful to ensure to grab the attention of children. I used Illustrator for the illustrations and InDesign to design the page layout.
