The first of the three Storybooks that I enjoyed the most during my browsing was
Andrea's Story Book "Weather Gods". The topic grabbed my attention first off because I have always loved the different aspects of weather and due to studying Latin I also enjoy Greek Gods making me choose this story. The title of this story did a good job of describing what would be told along with the introduction. The introduction was set up very casually using conversational questions, what exactly would be discussed, along with relating today's aspects with the horror of time travel. I felt the intro allowed for a voice to fully convey the purpose along with add personal style through internal mind questions the story teller might have with time traveling to see these different Weather Gods. The design is set up well with a large colorful font along with pictures of clouds in the back. I felt the design made it more entertaining but simple for one to focus on the words without being completely bored with words only. I also enjoyed
Tragedy vs. Comedy by Taylor Haddad due to its simplicity. The title broke the topic down simple enough, the intro keeps the words first to build the setting, and the diary format of the entire story is nice to see how one changes their thoughts as reading. This was a simple set up in the design which makes it easy to get the point expressed yet not too boring of a layout. I couldn't help but like the picture seen below due to its simplicity of a major quote from the Romeo and Juliet story being described due to my personal love for William Shakespeare.

Although the next storybook had a design that was a little feminine for my liking, I respected the layout and easiness to read of
Tea and Fairy Tales with Miss C. The title alludes to what will be discussed perfectly. The introduction is in short clumps of sentences to keep things simple and not lose attention of the reader. The design itself is pretty due to the colors and the pictures along with the short sections of words.
Overall, these three storybooks seem to be the easiest to grasp the reader and in my upcoming stories that I tell I would like to use a combination between the three for creative style.
