Our high school library was getting ready to throw away some books that are no longer used. I brought 3 home as I think they will make great altered books. I have decided to do an ABC book with the first one. I prepared my book by ripping out the extra pages I wouldn't be needing, and then gluing the rest of the pages together. I now have a book that has one two page spread for each letter of the alphabet. I chose to do angels for my A spread. I added the dictionary's definition of the word and then added pictures, my own drawing and a few added items to finish out the page. I am looking forward to starting on the letter B. I have chosen the word balance to use for that spread.
