That art and font looks like it's based on the books by Jeffrey Brown. Specifically Goodnight Darth Vader.
My boys favorite is Duck on a Bike.
The wonderful things you will be just breaks me up each time I try to read it to them, though. https://www.amazon.com/Wonderful-Things-You-Will-Be/dp/0385376715/ref=nodl_
If you think that's bad, wait until you try Good Night Goon.

I’m not providing what you’re asking for, I apologize ahead of time.
I bought this book when I was in your position: 365 Bedtime Stories and Rhymes https://www.amazon.com/dp/1680524046?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Making a book about what the nighttime routine will be without nursing could help, like this idea of social stories.
There are also some books you can by moreso about night weaning, but maybe something similar? (For others looking I'm thinking of this book).
With my first we just made the nursing sessions shorter - like cut a minute or two every couple of days. And for emotional or hurt times offered other ways to comfort. Eventually the distraction won out.
What's your comfortability with your toddler crying? It's ok if you aren't comfortable with it and it's ok if you are, it just changes your strategy. I initially want comfortable with her crying and have become more comfortable with it due to my learning of Magda Gerber.
Nursies when the sun shines https://www.amazon.com/dp/0615756425/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_1QCAHTY8267QBFXA68B3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
You could try night weaning. One option would be timing the nursing session on your phone and decreasing the time each day.. so if they nurse 8 minutes, the next day set a timer for 7 minutes, next day for 6, etc etc. Or you can try more of a cold turkey approach, although that may lead to some level of crying/fussing I imagine.
There is a book on amazon called Nursies When the Sun Shines... it's like a storybook geared to toddlers that essentially explains we sleep at night, and don't nurse until the morning. You would read the book to them every day for a week, and then explain that we don't nurse when it's dark. I'm in a twins breastfeeding group on facebook and have seen many swear by this book for night weaning.
Got this creepy kids (https://www.amazon.com/Goodnight-Goon-Petrifying-Michael-Rex/dp/0399260110/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=goodnight+goon&qid=1632692732&sr=8-1)[book] and then of course I had to explain to the 6 year old that one of the monsters is Frankenstein’s monster. And who he was, who made him, and what he did to Frankenstein’s family…. He had nightmare about him last night. So it may have been a little to soon.
I also never finished Frankenstein myself because that book was way to creepy. So what did I expect?
Here is another one I love that has a great message and is beautiful. I gave it to last NK:
I was hoping to send one for my grandson. Didn't realize it had spiraled that high.
If it helps, there's 4 new copies through amazon.ca, 24 Canuckle bucks. Shipping will jack it up accordingly.

I am not there yet but have been looking into it a lot to get some idea of how I will attempt weaning/night weaning when the time comes. Could you try a bed time story that stats getting him used to the idea?
This one seems like a sweet way to get the ball rolling https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0615756425/ref=as_li_tl_nodl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=0615756425&linkCode=as2&tag=wwwessexhypno-21&linkId=XY64MRBVXXGDPMOJ
Hope you get some good sleep soon!! 💕 youve done an amazing job keeping going for 3 years and should be super proud
What is a ghosts favourite room? The Living room... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Patrol-5-Minute-Stories-Collection-Story/dp/1524763993 this is something both my girls would love 😊 and they do say the funniest things. My sister when she was little we were at the local supermarket and they were selling willy wonka chocolate bars. Well she came shouting down the aisle at my mum and me please can I have a willy W*anka chocolate bar 😂😂 my eldest also determined that if I'm naughty I'm also to sit on the naughty step. So if I tell her no that's where she tries to send me
There's a satirical "spooky" parody version called "Goodnight Goon".

Hah, well "The Lost Knights of Honor" sounds a lot more badass than furnace (though it's cool too), though I kind of like "the lost cow" lol, makes me think of the Discworld book
Do you speak from experience? It's ok, but there's no story to it which makes it a bit annoying. Also, the wife doesn't get most of the jokes. This one has a bit of a story, so I like it a lot better.
This is a method developed for breastfeeding, bed sharing families: http://drjaygordon.com/attachment/sleeppattern.html
It doesn't sound easy, but it might make more sense for you than Ferber? See what you think. I was also recommended this book: http://www.amazon.com/Nursies-When-Shines-Katherine-Havener/dp/0615756425. I've heard some people say they've had great success with that.
Good luck, I hope you find something that helps!
So, I said I would follow up when not on mobile but I guess I don't really have anything more to add. The No-Cry Sleep Solution method (I have both the baby and toddler versions of the book) was really the best for me, and as I said there were still a few tears. Basically we started with the pull-off she advocated and it took a few weeks of fussing to get him to unlatch before sleeping. I would offer to rub his back, etc (we co-sleep, not sure what you do there) until he slept. After a few months of him being used to falling asleep right after nursing, but not while latched on, we moved to cutting out the night feeds. Talked about it for a few weeks in advance as suggested by some books ("Milkies in the morning" "Nursies when the sun shines") and tried to follow the principles of setting gentle limits as advocated by Hand-in-Hand Parenting. Good luck!
Two good helpful sources for co-sleeping and night weaning: Dr. Gordon's night weaning method and one of my son's favorite books, "Nursies When The Sun Shines".
my daughter loves 10 little fingers and 10 little toes its just a lovely book, it is about race, but doesn't smash you in the face with it. plus its very sweet
