Finalized idea

I'm finalizing on doing an interactive storybook with my own storyline. Since some of the seniors had done this, I would like to make it more interactive then the simple gif in it. Some I will have to research more and also based on what I had in mind.

The story board of the story…

- animated text

The following is broken down into pages.

1. There was a pretty young girl who is always seen in a white and pink dress. She is sweet and cheerful.

 - Her hair and dress blows in the wind (gif)

2. Everyday, she is seen playing in the playground all by herself the whole day.

- tap on the playset to see her play

- animated background

3. Her favorite time of the day  would be in the evening where the other children would play around in the playground. Every time, she would play hide and seek with them as it is one of her favorite game. 

- Find the hiding children.

- When found, the children do a different pose.

4. When it is time to go, she would just wave goodbye to the kids. No one ever saw her leave the place ever since she has first seen here.

- The girl's hand wave (gif)

- moving side characters as they are going back home

5. As a young boy is walking with his mother, he told her that he had fun and made new friend. He talks about the girl and he was suddenly curious. He asked his mother, " Mom, why her mother is not there to pick her up?"

His mother just look at him and told her son, "That's because she can't go back home anymore".

- Background moves as if the character is walking (bg gif)

- characters move up and down

6. As the mother look back, it is revealed that the girl died a few days ago in a car accident near the playground.

- character turns to look back (gif)

-zoom out of the girl in the park to see the flowers outside the park.

What inspires me most:

http://oakleighss.edublogs.org/2012/11/12/the-artifacts-new-interactive-storybook-app/

One of the most interactive storybook, The Artifacts by Slap Happy Larry.

One of the feature that I like most and would like to implement it into my storybook is the ending part of it. Where reader swipe (wipe) the screen and it changes into another scene. However, I am still searching for it.
