Create a book cover for The Underground History Book on Schooling. Revolutionary! JTGatto.

Oxford Community Press

We publish books which empower our audience with honest information. Our target audience include: homeschooling parents of K-12 students, professional educators, and teacher college departments.

I want the central object to be a school-like building which has "Forced Schooling" on its facing side to the reader.

Resembling a factory-like assembly line, we see 2-3 colorful, unique, and happy children entering the school building. Coming out of the right side of the school is 2-3 identical children showing zero emotion and in the color gray.

In a creative context, this whole picture appears as a dream, with cloud-like framing, arising from shadowy figures wearing top hats, smoking cigars, etc., indicating an idea which was created by a hidden group of people.

Attached is a poor sketch, but an guideline to assist you.

The purpose of the book is eliminate compulsory schooling.

Title of Book: The Underground History of American Education, Volume 1
By: John Taylor Gatto
Former New York State Teacher of the Year
Foreword by Robert Kiyosaki

It's okay to be creative with color schemes, as the purpose is to catch the eyes of people browsing education books, and their thumbnails.

Images may be CMYK or RGB color. All images should be sized at 100%, flattened to one layer and placed in your document at a minimum resolution of 300 DPI.

​Please do a 1/8 inch bleed on the sides, bottom, and top. The trim size is 7.5 x 9.25 inch. The actual image should take up about 1/2 of the 9.25 inch height.

If you want to bypass the design for the Title/Author, I have another person who can do that, otherwise you are welcome to do the Title/Author.

Credit will be given you on the publisher's page of the book.

Thanks for your hard work!
