Description
It looks like they're on the Crab Nebula.I like the colors though, so I put a non - print version in Scraps
Storybook I'm making for my little niece
Abrupt storyline shifts are OK with a toddler, I think

It's great how Angus' paw is still in the air from cleaning himself in the last page- how he's not at all happy about the interruption.

Okay, all pages I've seen yet are wonderful, but this is my absolute favourite so far!
And, oh yeah, apparently Angus is a king!

So cute!
He-cats being friends?.. Hm...
When my sister's cat found the beloved one, and heartfrozening screams could be heard from the garden where they'd been communicating in the evening, me sis told my niece: 'Don't go there, Manya, Tusik's being married there now'

So sweet! You know, I'm beginning to see a lot of similarities between Angus' character and Snape's! That haughty, sarcastic demeanour is so adorable!

XD I was thinking the same thing myself Lucy It's for a toddler though, so it will be all sweetness and light. . . Angus is a bit of a curmudgeon in real life though

yeah.. I Love these so, so much... i really hope you don't mind if I give you a tiny critique regarding the typography: its not a huge deal, ignore if it doesn't apply, however, i will say it just in case: your paintings are totally gorgeous.. and im already totally wrapped up in the story and dying to find out what happens with Angus and his adventuring. //
I also dont know how far you have these pages already planned in advance.. however.. it seems as though you make the paintings, and then add the typography afterwards... (dont know if this is true) If you dont do this already i suggest incorporating the typography from the beginning.. plan your painting more around where you want the typography to be.. it would help it be more readable. both for the adult presumably reading it and also, for the kid reading along ^^ this is a TINY critique as i love this so much, if they like the book they will want to read it over and over, and it will help if its easy on the eye, also they will learn to read that way. please ignore this if it doesn't apply! other than that though this is a professional looking book and ive read a LOT of kids books

I'm already starting to plan around the text. I can't re - adjust the previous pages, but the rest should be better if I can remember this XD. Also I'm adding white 'frames' around each page, as without a section of white around the images, they look too colorful and chaotic and clashy up against eachother when they're assembled as pages . . . .
