Children's Book Illustration "The Mess"

Here we find Ben and Dan playing pretend in their room and making a mess. Their mom has just walked in and discovered the nature of their room, which she will then have to order them to clean, but as you can tell by her face, it's understood that they are just kids having fun and no harm was really done. This two page spread would follow that of the space battle depiction where Ben and Dan hid behind rocks, firing their laser guns towards the giant tentacle monster Slorth, who can be seen as one of their toys within the toy box they are "hiding" behind.
