Artistic Layered Literature BY: Tony & Daniel

We started a new project in art class.  The books we are creating are shaped like accordions.  There is a window box through the entire book.  The books we create have at least four layers to look through.  Each section of the tunnel book adds to the image you can see when looking through the book.

"It is 3D, and the collage effect is really neat!"

"Tunnel books are a lot like pop-up books."

Some themes that students picked were video games, fall, adventure, animal, racing, soccer, farms, and the beach.  The books are a lot of fun to create, because you work in layers on the image.  You do not have to just work on the entire image.  The tunnel books let you work on different pieces through out the creative process.
