Below are examples that I found on Google Images of different examples of double page spreads of children's book in the information genre.
Columns and grids are used in every example and there is a specific background whether it is a shade of a colour or an image which relates to the topic in the double page spread. For a younger audience, the colour schemes usually are pastel colours or lighter, less harsh colours. For an older child audience, there are brighter and stronger colours such as oranges and greens. Blacks are also used for an older audience which aren't seen in the books for a younger child audience.
Pictures coming out of their boxes and overlapping is an important thing when it comes to book design as it gives the pages more depth to them.
In the mix of these images above, there are a mixture of double page spreads which are suitable for the younger audience which are 5-7 year olds and an older audience which is 7-11 year olds. I am going to take these examples and use them as inspiration and particularly use the grids and the columns in my work.
