Ascii art

    Ascii art is very intersting to look at, and to admire. Some of the ascii art is very simple while some are very complex and intricate. I think this is what some people associate or think coding is, and why people think it is so hard.

For my Flip Book, I ended up using the  Jungle Book.  I was a little upset about having to ruin one of my favorite books, so I ended up theming my flip book based on it, and also a poem that is toward the end of the flip book. I also involved the big issue of deforestation that is happening worldwide. I also wanted to bring awareness to what animals are impacted, and what could happen to them. With wars going on not just people but animals have problems finding a safe sanctuary no matter if there is a war, or they are facing deforestation, or even the threat of a "wall", they are being threatened every day.
