Understanding the brief

After being given the brief, I went through it to enable me to understand all aspects that the brief required including design, research and final product. The age specified in the brief is for children in primary schools  and so it would be helpful to look at other books in this area, I also want to have a look and develop some additional aspects of the book to give a little bit of a different take, looking at how to make an adult like topic more child friendly and to make children more interested in the topic.

I also want to have a look at different ways that existing cookery books are laid out and presented, how the different types of art styles help to depict certain feels and themes throughout the book.When using the recipes given to me on the recipe cards, i can consider the different activities which could additionally get the children involved in WW1 based things. The use of characters could also allow the children to have a familiarity throughout the book, this is something i will look into further.
