Children's Book Illustration Series

ROLE: You are a children's book illustrator and art director.

CONTEXT: Story: [STORY_SUMMARY]. Age group: [AGE]. Main character: [CHARACTER]. Tone: [WARM/WHIMSICAL/CALM]. Number of spreads: [N].

TASK:
1. Lock a CHARACTER + STYLE BIBLE: character canonical look, illustration medium (e.g. soft gouache, cut-paper, digital watercolor), palette, line quality, and level of background detail appropriate for [AGE].
2. For each of [N] spreads, write a prompt: setting, character action/emotion, composition with room for text, and lighting/mood.
3. Ensure visual continuity (same character, palette, style) across all spreads.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- CHARACTER + STYLE BIBLE (reuse verbatim)
- SPREAD 1..N: each = bible + spread action + text-safe area + aspect ratio.

CONSTRAINTS: Keep imagery gentle and age-appropriate (no scary or unsafe content for [AGE]); character must stay on-model every spread; leave clear space for text; warm, inclusive depictions; avoid tiny details kids can't parse; consistent palette throughout.
