Don't bother Ben! by Ladybird
Does the style complement the illustrations?
Does the design of the type use any any visual 'tool' (bold text/ colour/movement?) to enhance the information/story. Is this succesful?
Choose one spread that works well and one that doesn't.
The style of the font does work because the type complements the illustration. It gives the feel of the movemnet, curveness, and slightly chaotic.
there are speech bubbles with different font wich is easily recognizable by young children. Some spreads are overwhelmed with too much text it seems almost illegible also black text on darker background does not work well. The spacing is to narrow and too much text on one line.
what works? Speach bubbles work very well heping children to engae with thenarrative and be part of reading
Phonics Splat Cat by Ladybird

Choose one spread that works well and one that doesn't.
The story does complemet illustration. Illustartion fits with the text. Educational story. Font in the first story fits with the simplicity of the story, highlights the phonics - which helps children to recognise them - as well as it intensifies books purpose .
It is succesfull apart from the book's title font. Splat Cat title perhaps could be in smoother, more rounder font like Kirsten font which would fit with the word splat.
Spread in Jam-Packed story doesn't work; colour blends in and is almost invisible from previous stories. The purpose is defeted.
What works?
Posh Pets title's font works well; elongated font with its descenders and ascenders giving impression of elegance associated with the word posh.
