Book Jacket Analysis

a. This is a cartoon illustration with text that looks hand written.

b. The focal point is the girl on the bus reading a book.

c. The majority of the text is above the main picture with the author’s name below it.

d. The background color is dull to make the picture and title stand out. The color of the shadow of the title is a similar if not the same color as the girl’s jacket and the bus wheels.

e. The color repetition makes my eye travel around the cover.

f. The design is organized because nothing is too heavy on the top or bottom.
