Elsbeth's expressive face, backed by familiar school settings, immediately conveys emotional complexity. The color scheme, with predominating blues and warmer accents, subtly channels the balance between anxiety and hope that runs throughout the narrative. Typography plays a critical role, as the modern font of the title conveys the relevance of the story to the current generation, while the author's name in a more classic serif font speaks to the enduring nature of its lessons. Heavy matte card stock serves a functional purpose, reducing glare for easier reading and providing a tangible sense of quality that invites young readers to delve into Elsbeth's world.
