"The concept for this cover, which I both designed and illustrated, centers on the typography and the idea of the main character 'patching things up,' creating a hopeful tone despite the title and Otis' expression. Bright, contrasting colors draw the eye, making the cover engaging for the target audience. The inclusion of funny little critters adds charm while introducing side characters that enhance the book's fun and entertaining atmosphere."

"The design for this cover was meant to enhance the vibrant, swirling colors of the illustration and ensure the title stands out while at the same time sharing the same flowing lines of the branches. The slightly uneven, hand-drawn style of the letters evokes the feeling of a story that is both magical and full of wonder."

"For this cover, the goal was to create a fun, messy design that's both vivid and age-appropriate. The illustration needed to be playful yet distinct in style. It was necessary to have a bold font that was practical for picture book but also that hinted at what the book was about. I used a dynamic font with suitable illustrations around the title, but to ensure they didn’t distract from the font."
