Earlier this year I shared a few previews of my Halloween search-and-find book here, but I never posted an entire spread because I didn't want to spoil too much. Now that Halloween season is getting closer, I thought it would be fun to finally share one complete page.

This spread takes place in a zombie-filled graveyard, where the Graveyard Keeper is hosting a spooky party. Your challenge is to find the host and all the hidden objects on the list. Every inch of the illustration was drawn by hand, and I hid lots of little jokes and details throughout the scene.

I'd genuinely love to know what you notice first—or whether you can actually find everything without giving up. 😄
I'm happy to answer any questions about the illustration, the creative process, or the book itself. Have fun searching!

In this sweet little video, two little children made a mischievous plan to trick their teacher.

They decided to get the same haircut so that their teacher won't be able to tell them apart.

"I am him and he is me..."

The parents decided to play along and in the process learnt an important lesson... hate and prejudice are things that are taught to little children.

A lot of time, energy, resources have to be invested into indoctrinating children and making them believe they are of a superior species or race or ethnicity or gender...

What for really? Do we ever pause to reflect on this?

If raising children in the same manner as we have been doing for centuries actually worked, would the human race and along with is all the other species on the planet, in fact, the planet itself, be in the current state that it is today?

Full of fear, hate, violence, anger, rage, suppressed emotions, perversions of all kinds... destroying each other, killing countless species everyday, destroying the very planet we were born on...

After coming in contact with Acharya Prashant's work, I, in my adulthood got my childlike innocence back... all the distinctions taught to me and enforced on me, began to fall away.

I could begin to live life with a sense of freedom and lightness that everyone should be able to... the same way these little children in the video do. :)

Life, as play... with compassion and love in my heart.

The "jaded adult" can unlearn to be jaded, I learnt this from AP.

Why carry any burden from the past at all?

Why burden any child with the dead weight of the dead past?

Why not learn from these litte children instead?
