      Wow this will be a grand challenge indeed. I thought of doing the Secret Garden but I haven’t read it recently but I just finished up Alice in Wonderland so I will aim for that. 🙂

        Awesome!! I literally started working on a book cover yesterday. And I was thinking, maybe this will fit for the SVS prompt somehow. 😂 This never happens.

              @Chip-Valecek a slippery slope, but I think most will choose wisely👍

                This is exciting! I’m thinking some fairytale or the little prince.

                      @ajillustrates no surprise there 👍😉 The Little Prince is a classic.

                        I asked my son because I couldn’t decide and he immediately shouts out Eragon! So I’m doing Eragon. 😂

                          Do people know Terry Pratchette stories? I want to do “The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents” but I worry that not enough people know who Terry Pratchette was.

                            I'd like to do a cover for The Giver, by Lois Lowry, a middle grade book. Is everyone familiar with that story? Just want to be sure since I had a surprising/bad experience at a recent conference where both an art director and a picture book author/illustrator didn't seem to recognize the story.

                              As long as the book exists, I would just reference the book and maybe a link to the synopsis. I for one can not read, I have a hard time with it. I am a visual person and brief graphic novels over books. So this is going to be a hard one for me. I think the last book a read was in high school. I guess I should just do that one. I think it was Lord of the Flies.

                                @Chip-Valecek could you not do a book cover for nursery rhymes - I have two oldies (book collections) that I love?

                                  @Johanna-Kim Not sure, sounds familiar -reminds me of The Stone Soup -read that one once in high school.

                                    @Aleksey One of my very favorite writers--I've read everything he wrote. Amazing Maurice would be awesome!

                                      @Johanna-Kim I love The Giver. It is definitely a classic and I would love to see what you would do with it!

                                        @Heather-Boyd I'm sure that would be fine. As long as its not made up and it clearly defines what is in the book.

                                          Cheers Chip, I like the prompt. I think Lord of the flies would suit your style really well too.
