In this article, the authors describe a project that integrated computer technology skills with art history, photography, and layout/design. Approximately 160 fourth graders became photographers and created books on the following concepts: position words, numbers, colors, alphabet, shapes, and patterns. The books were professionally bound and placed in the school library. Upon their completion, selected student authors and illustrators read their respective books to the kindergarten and first grade classes. The entire project boosted the confidence of students, young and old, in their ability to use their own skills and resources to become successful author/illustrators.
