Buchumschlag Design Kurzbeschreibung

We are looking for ideas for a book cover for an upcoming title, 'Grandma, aren't you glad the world's finally in color today'?'

This is a story in rhyme that takes readers on a ‘then and now’ journey through time. Narrated by a grandmother, the story compares her own mother’s life and times to those of her grandchildren. Side by side vintage and full color photos compare fashion, schools, transportation, entertainment, technology, culture and the arts from the Great Depression and World War II years to those of today. A timeline of historical and current events runs throughout the book. This book creates an opportunity for readers to share their own family tree, and gives grandparents a way to start conversations about ‘who we are and where we came from’ and fulfill their role as family historian.

This is a 32 page, hardcover gift book for grandparents, packaged as a children's book. An historical timeline runs throughout, and there are black and white and full color photos on every page.

We are looking for a design that would convey the ''then and Now' theme of the book, the intergenerational-historical connections, and the lively, warmhearted verse.
