Step 1: Number pages 1 - 6 Make the number to the left and right at the bottom of the page in 12 pt helvetica bold.
2. Make pg 1 the title page: Title by your name. The title is The Book of Mammals.
3. Make a sub heading for the first mammal which will be an elephant. Type is 36 pt Helvetica bold.
At this point we will work with images together. Copy the elephant to your desktop.
4. Provide some information about the elephant. The type must be 12 pt helvetica, flush left. It will go below the the image. To get the information, answer the following questions:
- In your own words describe the animal.
- Where in the world does the animal live?

- What are this animals natural preditors?
- Is this animal in danger of extinction?

An elephant is a large intelligent mammal with tusks and big ears that roams the grasslands. Many elephants live in Africa. The gestation period for the African Elephant is a very long 22 months, just short of two years. The elephants most dangerous preditor are humans. People kill them for their ivory tusks. The elephant is in danger of extinction because they are hunted by man. An African Elephant can weigh more than six tons. That's more than 12000 pounds. That's a big mammal.
Repeat the process 6 times. You will have a total of 7 pages.

Direct selection activates the image and moves the image within the frame.
Selection activates the frame and moves the image and frame together
