Generate a comedic/slapstick style illustrations for this childrens book story: Page 1 After school, Julian walked home like usual. The sun was low, and his shadow stretched long behind him. Page 2 But something felt… off. His shadow didn’t move the same way he did. Page 3 Julian stopped. His shadow took one more step. Page 4 “Okay… that’s weird,” he said quietly. His shadow looked as sneaky as a quiet cat. Page 5 Then other shadows started moving too. They slid across the ground and twisted around. The shadows whispered softly as they moved. Julian’s heart started beating fast. Page 6 He wanted to run. But his feet stayed still. Page 7 “Hey, what’s going on?” Arlen walked over, noticing everything. “The shadows… they’re alive!” Julian said. Arlen looked at them, calm. Page 8 “They’re only scary because you think they are,” Arlen said. “Watch this.” Arlen stepped forward. The shadows didn’t do anything. Page 9 Julian took a deep breath… and stepped forward too. The shadows faded back to normal. Everything was quiet again. Julian laughed a little. Page 10 Arlen smiled. “Sometimes, fear is just in your mind.” Julian nodded and smiled.
