The cover of the book "Where Is Wisdom?" depicts a vibrant, illustrative scene divided into layers of earth, with a tree rooted at the top. A person stands beside the tree, gazing toward an owl flying nearby. The background includes a bright, atmospheric sky with birds soaring, while the foreground displays richly colored underground layers revealing gems, sediment, and tree roots. The title is prominently displayed in bold white lettering, with a subtitle reading, "A Treasure Hunt Through God's Wondrous World, Inspired by Job 28." At the bottom, the author's name, Scott James, and illustrator Hein Zaayman's credit are featured. A gold emblem in the upper left corner marks it as part of the "Treasure Seekers" series.
