WOW FACTOR I feel I went above and beyond by using fonts and differents formats on each page. I also made an interactive flipbook which lets you flip through the book. I made a cover page and added photos of the systems. I attached images with labels for each organ of each body system. I also added a title and description for my flipbook. Along with that II also had a background for the flipbook.
