Yay or Nay

Hello!

I thought I would introduce myself by bringing up something that has been bothering me for the past several days. In a recent post by Greenwillow Books on Facebook  (I'm sure you all know what fabulous post I am talking about  :P ) I noticed something different about the cover of CoK.

My Observations

Here is a link to the first cover:

And here is the newest cover photo:

THEY GAVE SOPHOS BEARDAGE!!!!!!

Has anyone else here been picturing Sophos without a beard?

It may make more sense in the context of the book. In Thief, he is a naïve boy. In CoK, he has probably matured somewhat... The beardage may be there to help underline the difference

(He is still clean shaven in my head!)
