Class assignment. We had to take an article or short story and turn it into a map. I chose the Giving Tree and turned it into a map about a boy in a hot air balloon BECAUSE! Throughout the story, the boy keeps taking things from his friend the Tree to help himself get through certain obstacles in life. On the map it shows certain points where the balloon would drop items to get over certain things quickly. And that's that.

I have absolutely no idea which category this belongs in. The original is 2 feet long.

My friend, that is -bitchin-. Really keen approach to the project, too. God I hated that little boy in the book.

HOW CUTE. I love the texture, it totally looks like a map, and all the place names are so charming. Lookit the teeny icons!

Wow! The textures make it look like it's really printed upon an old piece of parchment, and what a creative take on the project!

I've actually never read the giving tree, but I really love the layout of this :3 The idea, and just the wee additions of the key that tells you what all the icons are, and the lines showing where the objects fall! Really well done, I hope you got great marks!
