GOAL Choose a short novel and design a pocket book
"The Pirate's Pocket Book" is a tale written by Dyon Clayton Calthrop in 1907, which tells the story of a pirate in his adventures and misadventures exploring the lands and seas that surround him.
The map of the island where Tom Tomb lived was highlighted early in the book as a way of contextualizing the reader about where this story will take place and how is the geographical configuration of the place.
The numbering of the pages follow the orientation of the map of the island, the number that appears on the left corresponds to the page on the left, the page on the right (the right page), the number above corresponds to the previous page, and the number below to the next page.
Redesigned map based on the one in the original tale
