Front Cover Title: "Walking in Leo's Socks" The Layout: Imagine the cover is like a large reflection in a mirror or a puddle on the cafeteria floor. The Top Half (The "Old" Maya): She (Maya) is standing tall and looking "cool" at the blue table. She has a confident but slightly mean smirk. Below the table, you see He (Leo) sitting in the background, looking small and shy. The focus here is on the distance between them. The Bottom Half (The "Reflection" of the Lesson): In a reflection on the floor (maybe in that spilled orange juice puddle!), the image changes. It shows She (Maya) looking down at the ground with a sad, realization on her face—she looks like she finally "sees" him. The Focal Point: Right in the center of the cover, between the two versions of Maya, are His (Leo's) neon green star socks. They should be the brightest thing on the page. They represent the "shoes" she had to walk in to understand his feelings. The Background Details: To show they are "both new and different" in their own ways, you could draw She (Maya) with her high-fashion sweatshirt and He (Leo) with his unique pickle sandwich. It shows they both have their own "thing," but only one of them is being kind about it at first. In the background, you can faintly see the Golden Rule written on a school poster: "Treat others the way you want to be treated." Mehr sehen
