      Hey Guys! I have been working on a new book. It may look like a children's book, but I have been working long and hard on a kids book meant for adults. What do you guys think of the book cover design? I am so happy with the way it turned out.

          @Kori-Jensen this is a really clever idea! I would definitely read childrens style books intended for adults!

            @Kori-Jensen I love this idea! Adults need pictures too! Your cover design looks great. I don't know what's inside your book, so maybe your choice of green for the cover is intentional. But I'm wondering how it would look in a blue?

              @Kori-Jensen love the colour! It looks great.
              It makes me think of 'the boy, the mole, the Fox and the horse' not style wise but picture books for adults. I think there can be a big audience for this type of book. It requires less reading and often contains wise lessons that we are desperately looking for to feel we are going to be ok.

                  @Nyrryl-Cadiz Yah my sense of humour seems more complex for adults usually anyway lol

                          @Kori-Jensen oooh I really love that color! But it might be just me. I’m curious what everyone else thinks? @Chantal-Goetheer @Asyas_illos @Nyrryl-Cadiz

                            @Kori-Jensen this color is much more better! The green was bit too saturated

                              @Kori-Jensen I think you could go even lighter to separate values a bit more between the cloud and the background.

                                  @Asyas_illos really? I like the melding of Gloomy and the backdrop. makes it look like he is part of the sky πŸ˜ƒ

                                    I like what you've done.
                                    I would go over your back cover summary again though as there are some spelling and grammatical errors.

                                      Hi @Kori-Jensen, great idea!

                                      Here’s a few spelling errors you should consider before publishing.

                                        @Nyrryl-Cadiz I like the green more too. I love bright saturated colours πŸ˜€. Pops out more.

                                          @AngelinaKizz This is just a concept and should not be taken as a final arrangement
