Book design

Colors for the book were inspired by the title of the book. For the Secret Garden the green color was used and A Little Princess the light pink was used. The texts are white color to give a feeling of cleanliness and simplicity in the minimalist, modernist cover. The book is a dust book cover to include information about the series and the author in each flap. The hardcovers are reversed. White and colored text, simple without images. Since it is underneath the dust cover, I wanted the hard cover to be simple.
