What is a cover?
The cover is the outside of your book that is "wrapped" around the inside of your book. The cover almost always consists of the front, spine and back of the book in one piece.
What does a cover do?
The cover draws attention to the book. With a beautiful image, photo or catchy title, people become curious and want to know more about the book. For this reason, an attractive cover is very important for the content of the book!
But a cover also ensures that the inside of the book remains protected against dirt, splash water and damage. This makes a book last extra long!
