Who Stole The Gold?

This is a self-written picture book featuring a humorous tale about a king whose treasury gold mysteriously vanishes. His ever-loyal knight assumes a dragon is to blame and sets off on a quest — only to discover dragons who are far more interested in everything but gold.

To create a convincing medieval-inspired world, I researched historical costumes, architecture, and color palettes.

The challenge was blending authenticity with playfulness — ensuring the setting feels rich and believable while keeping the tone light and child-friendly.
