William Joyce sa primárne venuje tvorbe pre deti, kde uplatňuje svoju mimoriadnu fantáziu a vizuálny štýl. Jeho diela sú plné kúzelných postáv a príbehov, ktoré rozvíjajú detskú predstavivosť a učia ich novým veciam. Joyce vyniká v prepájaní textu s vizuálnou zložkou, čím vytvára nezabudnuteľný čitateľský zážitok. Jeho príbehy často skúmajú témy odvahy, priateľstva a objavovania sveta.
