Ideas and Illustrations

One of my projects for this winter is working on finishing a kid's book I've been working on for a few years. It's for young readers and will have spot illustrations in it, probably black and white but I have been working on character ideas in color. There is a young girl with her trusty dog and binoculars....
 A young boy who loves baseball....
 and bikes....
 This is probably the earliest drawing I did of the two when I was figuring out the basics. I think I like the longer, taller, skinnier characters the best. What do you think?
 This is another character, one of the younger sisters....
 and this is an attempt at a group illustration...can you tell what they are doing?
Any ideas or suggestions are always welcome....
