The Unkissable Cobra Draft One!

Hey guys. The book dummy get-together was awesome. I feel so inspired by the work I saw there, and the feedback was phenomenal. I have a TON of changes to make to this story now. The main ones are that I'm whittling the words down by around half, and the interactions of the cobra with the other animals is going to change a lot. I'll also be completely changing most of the layouts and spreads for the sake of flow and rhythm. There will be a little more comedy put in.

 It's going to be fun doing this again!

Here's the first draft of my very first children's book EVER!

The Unkissable Cobra WIP

I'm working on a children's book dummy for a book about a cobra who is looking for someone to explain a kiss to him. He can't seem to get a straight answer, however, as everyone he asks is frightened of him and quickly runs away after giving their response- all explained in terms of things they personally find joy in which the cobra can't relate to.

Here are the first 4 spreads sketched out. I have 6 spreads fairly complete (some are rough).
