Children's books and stories may seem prosaic and irrelevant to adults, but quite the opposite, we can get just as much inspiration from them as we would in any other literary work.
Remember, fairy tales were aimed to teach children valuable morals, even though some people seem to think of them as silly stories. But, originally, they weren't sprinkled with fairy dust. They revealed some harsh realities to help children became aware of the world they live in.
The potency of a great kid’s book is the all-around cleverness of its concept: how precisely the book knows its reader, what they’ve already read and loved (or rejected), and how exactly it speaks directly to her buried fascinations or fears.
Nearly all the same conditions—saturation, impatience, jadedness, ingenuity, exactitude—make the business of designing a knockout corporate website, company brochure, or infographic equally fraught with challenges.
