hollyollyoxenfree's review against another edition

I don't even know how to rate or review this. It's a weird little juvenile graphic novel. I'm still not sure what happened, and I read it yesterday. But parts of it were fascinating, and the illustrations were beautiful, so that's something!

A rejected teddy bear finds a new home in the forest - which happens to be infested with hair.
Yeah, it's a little kooky. But this charming story is lushly illustrated and accessible. The provenance of the main characters isn't clear, but they quickly found their way into my heart. There is darkness here, but hope too.
Loved the full color illustrations, variance of panels, and large format of this edition. Great endpapers.
The main thing missing is length. We need more stories from this world!
In a time when some of us want to reject human society and run for the woods, this is a welcome story.
Masterful.

This short graphic novel is a really well drawn and interesting spread, with a nice story attached. Curious to see what this author comes out with next.

Lots of great dialogue in a genuinely enjoyable story. At the end, though, it's not so clear why the story needed to happen. Only two of the characters get more than superficial characterization, but those two characters have some wonderful moments. In the end, it's a pleasant fable that reads like the first episode of a cartoon. Maybe a series would help it really find its legs!
