Author's Note: The 2nd Edition of Ten Dollar Adventure is now available (ASIN: B0G7ZNSKYS) featuring illustrations by Emily Chandler Author's Note on this 1st Edition of Ten Dollar Adventure : The foundations of Ten Dollar Adventure —the concept, story, characters, and educational framework—are the original work of the (very human) author. The illustrations of the characters and scenes in the first edition book were created with a generative AI tool. The author defined the characters, scenes, and artistic style for each illustration. From many generated options, the most suitable images were personally curated, and in many cases, edited and refined to match the author's vision for the book. The achievement stickers and play money were developed by the author. The 2nd Edition replaces AI illustrations with those by (the very human) Emily Chandler
