setting the scene

As the story is to be set or told within a gallery both the main characters and the gallery will be introduced within the pretext pages. These pages are most commonly used within picture books to give details on author, artist and publishers. However these pages can also be used to help with narrative and the introduction of people, places or anything important to the story. For these reasons I have chosen to show the child, her mother and grandfather all entering the gallery which can also be seen within the background of the image shown on the end paper. The initial images are shown below and details will be added later when formatting for print.
