The Caterpillar's Secret
This dummy book was created for my Children’s Book Illustration class. The assignment was to develop a complete picture book concept—including story, pacing, and visuals—and present it as a professional pitch. My story is inspired by a childhood memory of raising caterpillars in jars with my siblings.
