Storybook Favorites


3 Favorite Story Books


1. The Horses of Hogwarts





This storybook was one of my favorites because it continued on with the story of Harry Potter. I am a big fan of Harry Potter like most of Americas, so I was happy to see a continuation of it. The writer does it in a good way as well. The introduction lets the reader know what to expect and gets them to want to read more. I liked the design of the story book as well. It kept Harry Potter's vibe but added a more mysterious tone in some cases. Over all this was a really well done story book. 

2. Aladdin's Adventures

The next story book I chose was Aladdin's Adventures. This story was a very creative take on my favorite movie of all time. I liked the reverse story of Aladdin as a prince and the creativity of adding a second genie. I believe the actual writing was a little wordy at some points, for example, the introduction could have been a little more efficiently written. I did like the look of it though. It had a very good flow to the design. 


3. Babylonian Tales: Book of Nabu



The best story book I looked at was the Babylonian Tales: Book of Nabu. I had never heard anything about this subject so it was an interesting to read about as well. The introduction was very well written and got the reader interested in reading more. It explained exactly what the reader could expect in each section, but was not choppy. The look of it was my favorite. It was a very creative look. I do wish they made some of the photos more transparent so the reader could see the text better.

Introduction to Why You Want to Go Into Advertising

Why Advertising is Amazing Hi! I'm Maryellen! I grew up in Houston, Texas and am now a senior that is studying Advertising. I decided to study Advertising on a whim and didn't give much thought to it, I guess back then I just knew without really knowing.  Advertising is taught in  Gaylord Hall Going into Advertising has been one of the best decisions of my life. I get to interact with people all day while working toward a common goal. The great thing about Advertising is that it is usually held in such a fun environment. I am an Operations Director for Lindsey + Asp, the student-run agency on campus, and I couldn't think of a better environment to work in. People are creative, and a little weird and we get to come up with the grandest ideas that we actually implement in national campaigns.  Typically some of the qualities you find in someone in advertising can be seen as a weakness in other areas of work. A lot of us are ADHD, we talk...

Week 2 Story: Three Roses

Image
Three Roses There once was a caring mother with three daughters. The family was running low on supplies so the mother planned a trip to the market. Before she left the mother asked her daughters what they wanted from the market. The two eldest girls supplied a long list of wants. The youngest, however, just wanted three Roses. The family lived deep in the woods so the trip would take two days time. After collecting all the supplies that were needed the mother started to head back home. With such a heavy load, the mother needed a rest. It was getting dark and she could hear the animals coming out to search for food under the moon. She saw an old looking palace and decided to hurry there for refuge for the night. The mother had never seen this palace but it seemed extremely old. The only thing that was in good condition was the rose garden to the side of the palace. She had already bought her daughter the three roses but these were so much more beautiful. As soon as sh...
