Haroun and the Sea of Stories

(Book Design)



  • For 9 - 16 year old children
  • Helps create interest in reading classics
  • Storytelling

Title is created using Richela Kids and Quicksand font.



All the chapter numbers and names are written in colour to appeal to young readers. Baloo  and Berkshire Swash font are used.
Body text is ‘Avenir Book’ as this san serif font is well suited for reading.


A part of the book (chapter 9-11) takes place in the ‘twilight strip’ that in context is considered a dark space, hence the page colours are inverted.


The cover shows Hoopoe and Iff, two prominent characters from the book.

Hoopoe is described as:
  • tiny bid with a crest
  • telepathic
  • machine

Iff is described as:
  • small, ancient looking man
  • purple turban
  • full set of whiskers
  • palest blue beard
  • gold waistcoat
