About the Little Mouse Design Project

The Little Mouse book design project was a rewarding collaboration with a talented young author, brought to life through the support of Hidden Story CIC, a North East social enterprise. This heartfelt story, written as a metaphor for navigating the intrusive thoughts caused by OCD, was the centerpiece of a design journey that blended creativity and technical expertise.

Key elements of the project included:

• Layout Design: Crafting a polished, print-ready interior that balanced readability and aesthetic appeal.

• Typography & Fonts: Selecting fonts that reflected the story’s tone while enhancing accessibility.

• Cover Design: Creating a captivating front cover that visually expressed the charm and deeper message of Little Mouse.

Beyond the design, the project extended to editorial refinement of the manuscript and the development of a targeted marketing and promotional plan to ensure the book reached its audience successfully.

This project stands as a testament to the power of community-centered creativity, supporting a debut author to bring their vision to life. From the author’s original artwork to the final publication, Little Mouse exemplifies what is possible when storytelling and design come together to amplify an important message.
