Cartoon Illustrations for Kids Book

My upcoming children’s book for readers aged 8-12 needs a full set of lively, cartoonish illustrations featuring human characters only. The story follows a spirited group of friends on a series of humorous adventures, so each drawing should capture expressive faces, dynamic poses, and a playful atmosphere that resonates with pre-teens.

Scope of work
• Cover art (front and back)
• 20 interior illustrations—mix of half-page and spot pieces, all in full color
• Simple background elements that enhance the scene without overcrowding it
• Title and chapter-header lettering that matches the visual style

Technical details
• Final artwork delivered as layered PSD or AI files plus high-resolution flattened PNGs (300 dpi, CMYK for print, RGB for digital).
• Safe-trim and bleed respected to standard print specs.
• Source files remain editable for any final copy tweaks.

Acceptance criteria
• One character lineup and one full-scene sample approved before moving on to the rest.
• Consistent color palette, line weight, and proportions across all pages.
• All illustrations cleared for unlimited, exclusive commercial use.

Timeline is flexible within eight weeks, with milestone reviews at the sketch and color stages to keep everything on track. Let’s create visuals that make this story jump off the page and keep young readers turning pages with a smile.
