Book cover for a children's spooky novel titled "The People in the Painting". The style should be cartoonish but serious, suitable for 12-year-old readers. The cover shows a dimly lit room with an old, crooked painting hanging on a wall. The painting depicts a family of five: Donni, a 12-year-old boy (main character), his mom and dad, his younger sister age 7, and his older brother age 16. All the family members inside the painting have solid black eyes and slightly eerie, emotionless expressions, hinting that the painting is haunted. The room has worn wooden floors, faded wallpaper, and moody lighting, giving it a mysterious but not-too-scary atmosphere. Title at the top: "The People in the Painting" in bold, spooky-style lettering. Author at the bottom: "Written by Collin Berry". The tone should be creepy but kid-appropriate—like a mix between Goosebumps and Coraline. See more
