1_Can this theme drift to a tangential meaning that is commonly associated with the item under the light to create narrative and possibly broaden meaning..kind of like a thesaurus?

2_This theme

use iconic items found in american diners to as metaphors to approach underlying issues.

Use a very informative approach starting in the left hand side of spread, and slowly progress to the right as the items meaning either broadens or the root of the message is reached.__that would be at the very edge of the page.

the theme will make an educational experience that may affect an adult or a younger viewer. The objective is to effectively send the viewer from one end of the spread to the other and leave the final connotation up to them.

The experience of going from the denotative to the connotative should hopefully be a stretch when viewing the cover and the farthest right connotative image.
