    Book covers may be argued to be the most important pieces of paper within a piece of writing. They are responsible for sparking interest in readers, determining whether the book will be picked up and read or left behind to collect dust. For example, the cover of To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee features a mockingbird- symbolizing the innocence that is lost through contact with evil- that is used to spark curiosity amongst readers about its meaning in the novel.

    Fibber Flowers From the beginning of their days, children are endlessly taught that true beauty lies within, even if the exterior looks rather dull or repulsive.
