Create a single full-page children's book illustration. Use the attached character reference images and match each named character exactly — same shapes, colors and clothing; do not redesign them. SCENE: Leopard (match attached reference) presses Anansi (match attached reference) flat into dusty red earth with one paw while four of Anansi’s legs wiggle out. They are in tall grass, and Anansi wears a rumpled garment. COMPOSITION: Compose ONE full-bleed scene with a single continuous background that fills the whole image, characters at natural size placed toward the RIGHT. Keep the LEFT 50% text area genuinely open — plain, continuous background with NO characters, objects, props, hanging items, plants, patterns or decorations in it — while the rest of the scene fills the frame naturally. That LEFT 50% text area must be the SAME continuous background color as the scene (not a flat panel, not a different shade, no dividing line). Do NOT shrink or squash the characters. Book text will be overlaid in the LEFT 50% text area. Do not include any written text, letters, numbers, captions, speech bubbles, signs, labels, logos, or watermarks anywhere; the image must be purely illustrative.

Leopard runs at a fast pace. Bam! He has Anansi, and the bug has no chance.

'A bug is a nice snack!' says the big cat. He drops the bug in his den. Then he blocks the gap.

SCENE: Anansi (match attached reference) inside a dim den peers toward the escape gap, then pulls back to think. The narrow rock entrance is blocked by Leopard (match attached reference), with one half-closed eye filling the gap. COMPOSITION: Compose ONE full-bleed scene with a single continuous background that fills the whole image, characters at natural size placed in the lower part of the frame. Keep the TOP 50% text area genuinely open — plain, continuous background with NO characters, objects, props, hanging items, plants, patterns or decorations in it — while the rest of the scene fills the frame naturally. That TOP 50% text area must be the SAME continuous background color as the scene (not a flat panel, not a different shade, no dividing line). Do NOT shrink or squash the characters.

The bug glances at the gap, but the big cat blocks it. So the bug sits and plans.

SCENE: Leopard (match attached reference) heads north through tall golden grass, disappearing.

SCENE: Anansi (match attached reference) works outside the den entrance, using his legs to spin Anansi's entrance web (match attached reference), near-invisible across the gap.

SCENE: Leopard (match attached reference; Gossamer-fine spider silk is tangled tightly around his nose, ears, and paws.) roars.
