Creating the cover art and working with this class has been a wonderful journey. Inspired by the beautiful facilities nestled in a magical forest by the waterside, I aimed to capture the spirit of exploration and creativity that blossomed during our time together.
The stunning autumn colors and vibrant wildlife all around influenced my design, reflecting the energy and warmth of the students’ work. I wanted the cover to feel like a secret invitation into their stories and illustrations, showcasing their unique voices and dreams.
This project has been an absolute joy, and I hope this anthology inspires readers to appreciate the beauty of storytelling and art by these talented young creators.
Thanks to The Reading Partnership, Story Planet, and KayGeni for making this anthology possible! 📚✨
