Single page

One scene fills one printed page.

Original single-page illustration of Emma practicing martial arts on a rooftop.

After · Double-page spread

One continuous spread

One scene stretches across both pages, with the center fold between them.

Panoramic illustration of the same rooftop scene, extended across two facing pages.

Two facing illustrations

Two different scenes sit beside each other. Their pictures do not join.

Separate left-page illustration of Emma leaping above a cheering crowd in a martial-arts arena, with English story text.Separate right-page illustration of Emma bowing to her purple-clad rival before a match, with English story text.

Leave room for the fold

In a printed book, the middle bends into the binding. Keep faces, important details and words away from this center area. Text belongs comfortably within one half of the picture.

Read on any screen

The desktop reader shows the panorama across the full opening. On mobile, it shows the complete illustration; enlarge it to read the words and explore the details. Narration reads each scene once.

Choose, review, then apply

Use “Double-page spread” beneath an interior illustration to switch it on or off, then review and apply your changes. Only the pages you toggle change; other scenes keep their saved layout. Alignment blanks may be added so spreads face correctly. Covers and books with separate text pages keep their existing layout.

Check both costs

Creating a new illustration uses 1 generation credit per scene, using your included allowance first. Turning a spread off automatically restores its saved original for free when available. If no suitable saved artwork is available, the review shows the generation cost. Spreads and alignment blanks can change the printed page count and hardcover price: compare the exact totals before applying. Your current book stays available until all changes succeed.
