Tamony and the Diary of Daisies: Children’s Book Illustration Cover Design

The Brief
The author needed a gentle, inviting cover for a children’s story about a young girl and her diary. It had to feel cozy and imaginative, appeal to young readers and the parents buying for them, and stand out in a crowded children’s section online.
What I Made
I designed a soft pastel cover in lilac, blush pink and cream. It shows a curly-haired girl sitting on her bed with her diary, in front of a sunlit window with flowing curtains, climbing vines and daisies. I chose a friendly, hand-lettered title style and used the daisy as a recurring detail that ties into the story’s name. I also presented the cover as a 3D paperback mockup against a soft lilac wall, so the author could picture it as a finished book.
The Result
The cover feels warm, playful and easy to read at a glance, and it suits a young readership. It is ready for [Amazon KDP / print / eBook]. [Add a real outcome here if you have one, such as client feedback, the publication date or a link to the live book.]
