This book is a diary and very personal to Dara. I want the book to have a personal touch. This book means a lot to Dara and needs to have some meaning to it. Iv'e started to list certain words in the book like blackbirds, roots, snails, wildlife, family orientated, sensorys,world we neglected, book chapters (seasons) etc.

The phrase ‘world we neglected’ i want to touch on this in the cover and somehow make the book show the readers what we are could miss out on. The chapters in the book are seasons so maybe provide a colour scheme from this? Wildlife is mentioned a lot in the book and i think this personally needs to be shown on the front to get a sense of what the book is about.
