* This type of illustration is known in German as a 'Wimmelbild', and are typically found in children-oriented books called Wimmelbilderbuch ( literally: "teeming pictures book" ).

Thanks for pointing that out Macruran!

I like the Pterosaur in the duck pond best.

If you google the artist's name (Christoph Hoppenbrock) you can see he does a bunch of Wimmelbilder, though only two PM ones as far as I can tell through a multisecond internet search. This is the other one:

JPSA:
Nice catch, Macruran.  I almost mentioned Hoppenbrock, but passed because some of his non-PM illustrations can be a bit 'risqué' ( not kid appropriate ).

Recommended:

* Hoppenbrock did a spectacular Wimmelbild for a natural history museum: https://chasmosaurs.com/2019/07/16/the-big-one-christoph-hoppenbrocks-massive-palaeoart/

* In the sci-fi genre, one great 'Wimmelbilderbuch' series ( not by him ) are the three: "Where's the Wookiee?"  Ex: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/L2e0Y5

An updated version of The Lightning Bolt spaceship was eventually built, and can be viewed here:
