This story really caught my attention because I literally laughed out loud when I saw the title. It reminded me of the hit series on Netflix called
Orange Is the New Black. I love how it combines traditional fairytale story themes with a new modern-grownup twist. The intro really captured me and I wanted to know more about this secret place in the fairytale kingdom. I also like how it goes right into the story without taking too long on descriptions. I wasn't a big fan of the actual presentation of the story though. I didn't like that I had to click through different links instead of just scrolling down the page.
This story grabbed my eyes because it looked like something familiar. As a broadcast journalism major, I have to always be looking for all news, including entertainment. I thought it was a very different take on biblical diaries and I love the creative way the author brought together two very contrasting ideas and melted them into one. Once again, I'm not a big fan of the design of this storybook. I thought there was too much pink, which was a little distracting, and I'm not a fan of clicking different links to read the whole story.
Once again someone has peaked my interest by using the "news" angle for their storybook and I am digging it! Bonus points for involving Czech stories as well! I like the design of Czech News 9 better than the previous just because it was easier to read. Like I've said in the past though, I am not a fan of clicking different links to read the whole story. Also there is a very long paragraph in the story that I think should have been broken up into smaller paragraphs. It was a little hard to read the whole thing without getting lost in a giant block of lettering and words.
