Discovery on the Wooden Deck

A child in a bright red raincoat and yellow boots walks along a weathered wooden deck as warm sunlight filters through the trees. The wood grain is detailed and the railing is covered in moss. A delicate trail of animal paw prints—small, rounded cat-like or fox-like tracks—creeps along the edge of the deck, leading toward a sun-dappled garden. The child pauses, eyes wide with curiosity, tipping forward slightly with one hand reaching toward the prints. Dust motes float in the beam of light. In the background, green shrubs, a wooden fence, and distant trees create a cozy backyard scene. Render this in a gentle, storybook watercolor/digital painting style with rich textures, soft edges, and warm, inviting colors suitable for a children's book.
