Picture Book
What is a good title for a deep picture book based on War?
I have written a picture book story revolving around the horrors of war. It is told from the perspectives of a Vietnam War verteran who tells his grandson what horrible things people did to one another. He also tells him that the horrible War images haunt his dreams e.g. Malnourished children dying at the side of a busy street etc.
WW2, the Holocaust and the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings also feature in the story.
Can anyone think of a title that is smart and may have deep meanings.
Thanks in advance!
Dang! Jack’s answer is so good that I will not suggest another. Go with Jacks suggestion. It captures it all: the blind, pointless, stupid side of war. The use of patriotism as an excuse for war. The fact that battles are fought between countries but fought by individuals with no view other than the horrors they see every day in war.
So many things can be pulled from Jacks amazingly simple, yet powerfully poignant title.
