Cousins in the Library

In a dimly lit, old-fashioned library, 6-year-old Rohan sits cross-legged on the carpeted floor, holding an oversized book open with vivid illustrations facing up. His cousin Maya is on a wooden ladder to his left, reaching for a high shelf where an ornate, closed box sits among dusty books. The walls are lined with shelves filled with variously-sized, leather-bound books. A large window behind Rohan lets in filtered light, illuminating floating dust particles. Their grandmother is sitting at a small, round reading table in the background with her glasses on, reading a book.

Draw this scene from Maya's perspective on the ladder, capturing the height and scale of the bookshelves, Rohan's curious expression as he flips the pages, and the intricate details of the library's interior.
