Storybook With Magnetic Figures (#11)

I hope that you enjoy the latest storybook.

Print the first eight pages, using these settings: landscape, double-sided, flip on the short edge.

If possible, use light weight cover stock.

Print page nine on heavier cover stock.

Cut four pages in half as shown.

DO NOT CUT THE LAST PAGE OF THE PDF.

Stack pages 1-16 in one pile and pages 17-32 in another pile.

Fold.

Each of these is a folio.

Sew each of the two folios, using the diagram as an illustration.

Cut a sheet of heavy cover paper, 11.375" (11 3/8") by 4.5" (4 1/2')

(I cut down 12" scrapbooking paper when I have it. Otherwise, you can cut 8.5 x 11 heavy paper for a slightly smaller cover. After the folios have been glued, you will need to trim the page edges, unless you can live with the overhang!)

Fold so that there is a 3/8" spine in the center.

Place a strip of hot glue (yellow) slightly to one side from the center. (NOTE: The diagram is for a single-folio book. This book has two folios, so there will be two strips of glue.)

Fold the cover (red) as shown.

Place the first folio into the cover and press against the hot glue (blue dot).

Open. Put a second strip of hot glue (second blue dot).

Place the second folio into the cover.

Trim the cover if necessary.

Cut out the figures from page nine. Attach magnetic strip to the back.
