Preparing a Cartoon Strip:
Example: 6 panels
1. - Fold a large sheet of paper (8 1/2" x 11" or larger) in half horizontally, and then
in thirds vertically, to form 6 panels.
2. - Number each panel.
- Place title of story in one of the panels. (I didn't want to use an entire
panel for the title, so I placed my title in between two panels.)
- Write "The End" in last panel.
