UDL Book

(Link to my book: http://bookbuilder.cast.org/view.php?op=view&book=57240&page=1)

The entire book hinges off my guides, so don't be confused when there's very little on the page.

I liked the idea of guides, considering I am neither a very good author or illustrator. The Book Builder seemed dated in that after ANY change to your book it had to reload the entire page. Not to mention the pop-up windows to edit anything. That being said, the guides brought a human element to my book in allowing my readers (presumably children) to see an animated character talking to them. Some of these kids won't even know how to read, so having the pictures and spoken word in there qualifies me for UDL. Maybe I failed miserably, but I never claimed to be good at making books.
