Good Night, Little Dreamer

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Explore a hand-drawn bedtime illustration concept of a boy, his black cat, a telescope at the window and stories read by torchlight in a blanket fort.

The boy reads a rocket-covered storybook on the window seat while his black cat listens, sleeps beneath a planet-print quilt as the cat curls at his feet, watches the crescent moon through a telescope with a warm mug, and shines a torch over a book inside a fairy-lit blanket fort. Midnight blues and lamplight golds hold the night together. The supporting sheets add turnarounds, nine expressions, dynamic poses with a toy rocket, six outfit variations, a cat companion turnaround and a six-panel storyboard where dreams take flight.
