Page 1
Alex stands on the left side of the image, facing the viewer with a wide, excited grin, holding a diamond shovel in her right hand down by her side. She is positioned outdoors on a light sandy/snowy ground with a grassy hillside rising behind her, with patches of grass and exposed dirt — a bright daytime scene. The right ~40% of the image is plain mint-green background, clear for text overlay.

Alex is on the grass hill. Alex has a big plan. Dig, Alex, dig!

Page 2
On the right side of the image, Alex stands inside a narrow underground tunnel dug into dirt and stone blocks, rendered in a Minecraft-style voxel aesthetic. Alex faces forward with a focused, determined expression, gripping her diamond shovel with both hands as she pushes deeper into the excavated passage, with grass-block flooring beneath her. The left side of the image is plain mint-green background, while the right side features the cross-section of the dug-out earth, with scattered blue ore flecks visible in the dirt walls, suggesting treasures waiting to be uncovered.

Alex digs and digs in the hill. Dust and grit spill.

Page 3
On the left side of the image, Alex stands inside an underground dirt-and-stone tunnel, holding her diamond shovel in one hand and bending down with an amused, curious expression as she reaches toward a cooked cod sitting in an item frame on the ground near her feet. The scene is set underground with blocky Minecraft-style dirt and stone walls surrounding Alex, with soft lighting illuminating the narrow excavated space. The right ~40% of the image is plain mint-green background.

Alex spots a cod in the dig. Alex grabs it and sniffs it.

Page 4
On the right side of the image, Alex stands on a grassy area, leaning slightly forward with a focused expression as she tends to a small campfire burning beside her, with her diamond shovel resting on the ground nearby. A cooked cod sits by the edge of the flames. The campfire sits on the ground to her right, with visible flames flickering over logs. The scene is set outdoors during daytime on flat green terrain with a hillside of dirt and grass rising in the background, rendered in a Minecraft-style blocky aesthetic. The left side of the image is plain mint-green background, clear of any detail.

Alex sets the cod at the hot log. Off Alex runs to dig.

Page 5
On the left side of the image, Alex is descending into a deep, dark underground hole or cave, viewed from above at a steep angle. Alex appears small against the rocky grey walls, gripping her diamond shovel tightly as she climbs down into the narrow passage with a tense, cautious posture. The cave environment is dimly lit with rough stone walls closing in around the opening, while the right side of the image opens to a plain mint-green background.

The pit is big and dim. Alex must not slip. Still, Alex digs.

Page 6
On the right side of the image, a campfire burns on a grassy hillside in a Minecraft-style blocky world, with a cooked cod visible sitting by the edge of the flames. Cat is crouched low nearby, one paw extended toward the fish, batting it away from the fire with a sneaky, mischievous expression. The scene is set outdoors during daytime on green terrain with brown earth/cliff blocks in the background. The left side is plain mint-green background.

Cat spots the cod. Sniff, sniff! Cat tips the cod off the hot log.

Page 7
On the left side of the image, Cat is crouched low on a green grassy lawn, eagerly gobbling down the last scraps of a fish with a satisfied expression, with no trace of the meal remaining on the ground around it. The scene is set outdoors in bright daylight beside a wooden house, in a Minecraft-style blocky 3D art style. The right side of the image is plain mint-green background.

Cat gulps the cod on the grass. Not a bit is left.

Page 8
On the right side of the image, Cat is walking across a bright green grassy hillside on a sunny day, looking alert and curious with a mischievous expression, as if heading off to explore. Behind Cat rises a large stepped rocky hill, with a blue sky and fluffy white clouds above and water visible in the distance. The left side is plain mint-green background suitable for text overlay.

Cat trots off, up the big hill. What a bad cat!

On the left side of the image, Alex is standing at the bottom of a deep hole she has dug, viewed from above at an angled perspective. She is holding her diamond shovel and is surrounded by dirt and stone walls that tower above her, emphasising just how deep she has excavated. The scene is outdoors in bright daylight, with piles of loose dirt and rubble scattered around her feet at the bottom of the pit. The right side of the image is plain mint-green background, clear for text overlay.

Alex is in a big, big pit. Will Alex fill it in? Not yet!

Page 10
On the right side of the image, Alex is leaning forward and peering down into a narrow underground cave or mine shaft, gripping a pickaxe, with a frozen, wide-eyed expression of surprise as she discovers a glowing block of redstone ore emitting a red sparkle at the bottom of the pit. The scene is set in a blocky, Minecraft-style underground environment with stone walls and ceiling surrounding the opening. The left side is plain mint-green background, clear for text overlay.

Alex spots a red glint in the pit. It is bad, bad stuff!

Page 11
On the left side of the image, Alex is scrambling up a staircase of stacked dirt and grass blocks inside a deep hole, gripping her pickaxe in one hand while climbing urgently with a panicked, wide-eyed expression. The staircase-like walls of dirt blocks rise steeply above and behind Alex, with patches of grass on top. A faint orange glow emanates from below, hinting at the imminent explosion. The right side of the image is open mint-green sky, clear for text overlay.

Alex huffs and puffs up, up, up. Fast, Alex, fast! Do not slip!

Page 12
On the right side of the image, a Minecraft-style underground mine is shown from an overhead angle, with blocky stone and dirt walls blown open in a large crater — the aftermath of an explosion. Fires burn in several spots among the rubble, and dozens of cooked cod items tumble and scatter across the excavated area, ready to be collected. The left ~40% of the image is a plain mint-green background for text overlay.

Blast! What a mess! But look, a mass of hot cod is in the pit. Bliss!
