《Jake and the Dynamo》Meet the 'Jake and the Dynamo' Paperback
Advertisement

I am really pleased and impressed by the paperback release of Jake and the Dynamo. As you can see here, Lee Madison's cover art transferred beautifully. Getting the physical copy in my hand, I was able to appreciate some of the art I'd not been able to get a good look at before, such as the spine:

I had assumed the spine would probably be unadorned, so I was pleased to see the title logo accompanied by Pretty Dynamo's insignia and a lightning bolt. The back is also great:

The back, of course, features Madison's re-imagining of Tesla the lightning bug as well as the blurb. But it doesn't just look good on the outside. It's a big book, so the text inside is correspondingly large and clear:

I would also like to note that the chapter headings and section breaks, provided by my illustrator Roffles Lowell, do much to complete the book's look as a finished and polished product:

The only difference between the paperback and the eBook is that the illustrations in the paperback are in black and white. Lowell and I have already discussed some improvements for the next book, but I think the illustrations for this one have turned out well:
