In our authors’ words.

I wanted a cover that makes you stop and look twice, and this does. It's a bit unsettling, which is what I was after. The colours work with the character, and the title still stands out instead of getting buried in the artwork.

The cover feels like the story has already started before you open the book. There's a lot going on in it, but it never looks messy. I'm proud to have my name on it.

I didn't want the book to look like yet another dull business manual, but I still needed it to look professional. The cover has energy, and you can read the title even when it's tiny. That mix mattered a lot to me, and it worked out.

Keeping it simple was the right call for this book. The navy and silver feel dignified, and the crest actually has space to breathe. I'm glad nobody crowded it. Sometimes less says more.

Putting five very different stories into one book is hard to pull off on a cover. I wanted readers to get a sense of the variety right away. Each story gets its own spot, and it still looks like one collection.

The message in this book is a simple one, so I wanted the cover to stay simple too. The hearts and the handwritten touches feel warm without piling on. It feels personal, and that matters to me because the story and the pictures are both mine.

This story comes out of childhood experiences, so how it's presented was important to me. I like that the cover keeps the child's feelings front and centre. You get the idea straight away, no long explanation needed.

I wanted the cover to make people curious. The book deals with big ideas, but the cover feels friendly and easy to approach. My favourite part is the gentle colours against the burst of activity in the middle. It makes you want to see what's inside.
