An Emotional Picture Book
Life Is Short. Life Is Difficult. And Life is Beautiful.
happy friday!
This past month I asked a number of people to submit something about emotion: a difficult hardship they've experienced. A lesson they've learned on people and life. Or a poem about perspective or feelings.
I also asked them to describe a picture. I then created a picture book with their stories and images. You can find the e-book here and the hardcover book here.
On the cost:
The digital book is $5, which is all profit.
The hardcover book is $25 with 20% of it being profit.
All of the profit I donate to the UCSF Children’s hospital here in San Francisco (specifically, at Mission Bay). The money is spent only on one thing: something that kids care deeply about and that brings them happiness. At the top of that list lies Fortnite V-Bucks or Roblox Robux.
The book came out great in my view and it was fun making it! Now onto the next project.
