ASSIGNMENT: Illustrate the following extract from The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Originally written by Asbjornsen & Moe, retold by Vera Southgate.

"It's me, the biggest billy Goat Gruff," he bellowed.
SPECS: Double-page spread of an 8.5x11" Picture Book. (Two facing pages). Bleed optional.

Total illustration size with bleed = 17.5"wide x 11.5" deep. Total illustration size without bleed = 15.5" wide x 9.5" deep.
