Great work!
This does say a story (finally one that does!)
The backlighting is perfect for this but even more so is the positioning, which places the child on the top of the world for a moment. It gives a message that this is a story that most children experience(which is why the sillouette works so well as it keeps the face unknown and hence can be anyone), one of winning a game, of the satisfaction of accomplishment.

this deserves a ribbon for sure
