Every day the world presents you with the wrong battles, designed to waste your energy so you don't fight the right ones.

Two chickens at a computer. The one in the suit says "Tired of reading A.I.-generated slop on the internet? Try our new A.I. reading tool that consumes content so you don't have to!" The other chicken says "Finally! Nobody has to read the content that nobody wrote!" In the distant future, a parent reads a book to their children, "And that, children, is how the internet died." "Cool!" says one of the kids.

The best tip (imo) for illustrated books: never repeat what's in the text in the image. Always add something to the narrative in the image. Think of the art and words as two widgets in a machine with slightly different jobs that work together to make the machine work.
