Selected spreads and a spot illustration from a nonfiction picture book pitch about death rituals around the world. The book is aimed at children aged 10–14, inspired by my love for anthropology and morbid trivia growing up. The book surveys the many religious and funerary traditions across the globe; how we grieve, and how we dispose of and remember our dead.

Info
A historical epic about the building of the greatest gothic cathedral the world has ever known, and the fates and fortunes of the people it brings together (and tears apart).
The book features a huge cast of characters and spans decades, so my jacket features a brief introductory comic alongside an incomplete character glossary on the flaps.
