Cover of the children's book "Sadie Finds Her Voice," featuring a group of friendly, anthropomorphic animals gathering at night. The central character, Sadie, is a grey bunny in a turquoise dress, surrounded by a frog, a raccoon, a dog, and a bird, all looking engaged and supportive. The scene is adorned with string lights and a crescent moon, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The book addresses the theme of shyness and is part of the "Good News for Little Hearts" series. Edited by Aaron Sironi and illustrated by Joe Hox.
