10.3 These boots are made for walking ...

Read a book with one or more people walking on the cover ...
The person/people must be shown from at least the knee down, and some representation of movement must be shown (a stride, a step, a lifted foot or skirt)

Required: Post the cover

It's hard to tell if the ladies in long dresses are walking and the man is opening the gate but is he also walking? Thanks!

OK, just verifying. I saw her as running frantically away, trying to avoid things. So you are saying "no", it doesn't work, correct?

These just look like poses to me base on the arm positions.

This one does look like they are walking down a fashion runway to me.

Sorry, I tried to magnify it, but it still looks to me like they are waiting for the train, not walking.

After magnification, I think the back leg is enough to qualify as from the knee down, so this is approved for walking.

Yes or no?
Woman on the far left, the man in the back, and the person on the far right of the image. Those in the middle are obviously NOT walking, but the other three appear to be.

Jessica (bookwrm526) | 2109 comments Struggling a bit with this one! Would this be enough movement? The one on the right especially looks like her legs are apart in a stride:

Or this one, the one on the left is walking, leaning into the wind:

Cat (cat_uk) | 3387 comments A Crime in Holland (Maigret #8) by Georges Simenon
Will this work? I can see a shift in weight, like she's just about to step onto her right foot from left, but it's subtle / possibly over optimistic!

Shelby (stang_lee) | 927 comments Would Detroit Kiss (A Mac Gerailt/Navarro novella) by Rhys Ford work? The bent knee implies walking forward to me.


message 50: by Joanne (new)

Joanne (joabroda1) | 1559 comments The task calls for some representation of movement must be shown (a stride, a step, a lifted foot or skirt)

In my mind, he could be just standing with his knee bent. At the
bottom of the cover, you can see his feet are together.

I am going to have to say no.
