To create your storybook page-by-page, start with the storybook cover picture.

The picture must be flat on a surface before you take the photograph.

Take photographs of pictures inside or outside, wherever the light is good. Check for shadows on the page if there is sun.

Keep your hands still - try to avoid shaking and blurring the photo. (If the camera has anti-shake, check it is switched on.)

You can also use artificial light inside, or work next to a window.

Check for shadows if the light is directly above you.

Use the crop and zoom tool on the App.

You can crop the picture square, or zoom in on a detail.

Type the story text for each page.

Remember to save each page!

Work in progress.

Completed!

The storybook can also be published on the African Storybook website.
