I’ve written a short picture book for babies and toddlers (0-3 years) and now I need each scene to burst with gentle, whimsical energy that captures the simple sense of adventure running through the story. The text is final; I’ll share the manuscript and page breakdown once we connect. Here’s what I’m looking for: • Full-colour, whimsical illustrations that feel playful and age-appropriate—think soft shapes, expressive characters, and bright but soothing palettes. • Artwork sized and formatted for both print (standard square 8x8 in) and digital release. • A cover illustration that immediately tells parents this is an adventure worth opening. • Layered source files (PSD, Procreate, or AI) so minor text placements can be adjusted before going to print. I’ll provide clear scene descriptions, reference mood boards, and pacing notes. In return I’d like rough thumbnails, a round of feedback on refined sketches, and then polished finals. If you’ve illustrated board or picture books before, please point me to them—seeing how you translate story beats for very young readers will help me choose the right partner. Let me know your typical timeline for a 24-page project and any questions you have about the story’s adventurous moments. I’m excited to see how you’ll bring my little explorers to life!
