semillas y huevos

I'm making a six-page (counting the cover...) picture book for the kids I met on my trip (they're all siblings and cousins of each other). It's about planting an egg and having a hen hatch an avocado seed. Here's my cover image: two avocado seeds and two eggs :-)

... Hoping you can tell (but would not be surprised if not, heh) that the top two are the avocado seeds and the bottom two are the eggs. I'm biting my tongue to not-say all the things that are wrong with the picture. Mainly I like it even with the problems.

I really like the concept behind that leedle book!

And also: those kids are getting a book made Just for Them! They'll be in ecstasy.

And I like the look of that first picture. I'm thinking that for you a lot of the "what's wrong" is in that it's not in your usual style?
