As a result of this initiative, each of the local communities began to focus on understanding their history and community stories in order to share with others. This helped to promote their identity and provided a sense of belonging for residents. This project focuses on the locale of Dadu Terrance. By visiting the seven different villages of Dadu, their unique stories and sceneries became the inspiration and the theme of this project. There are many different ways of telling a story and promoting one’s culture. This project has chosen a picture-book as a medium as it is an effective tool to deliver a narrative. Through the reading of the picture-book, the public is able to gain better understanding of the community. This project applies narrative strategies and collect the necessary data needed in order to create a comprehensive picture-book. The picture-book will be displayed at the Dadu Terrance public library and community development office for residents and visitors to read. It will assist in the promotion and preservation of the unique Dadu Terrance culture. Hopefully, the result of this project will also serve as a reference for other communities in their development and planning.
