4 characters, wiser than they look and supporting and uplifting each other in the most comforting and joyous manner. This short book has magic and hopes packed into it. The illustrations made me want to build a home and live inside these pages forever, quite sure that these characters won't let me down or leave me unhappy in any way.
"The greatest illusion", said the mole, "is that life should be perfect".
'The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse' feels like a giant hug, one that speaks of familiar comforts and one that will bring you home in moments of despair and confusion. There's wisdom but it isn't preachy. Just a few lines that strike the right chords and you are falling in love with this book all over again.

"Is your glass half empty or half full?" asked the mole.
"I think I'm grateful to have a glass," said the boy.
"Always remember you matter, you are important and you are loved, and you bring to this world things no one else can."
i will forever keep this warm, comforting little story in my heart ♡

This book gets to the heart of life. It touches it lightly for a brief moment and then flutters away again. The story is like a dream, in which you go from short moment to moment.
This book touched my soul, it hit me in my self-love, in my inner child, in my imposter syndrome, it hit me in my relationships with others... It just keeps on giving truths.
And i haven't even mentioned the artwork yet! As a creative art lover myself, I think the drawings are beautiful. The styles of the artwork vary from page to page. Some detailed, but mostly fleeting. Some where it only seems like there are just minimalistic lines, but they tell a whole story. Every page I turned I was curious about what was to come. Some pages gave me a smile, on some pages I was so surprised by the drawings and other pages I was silent for a while from recognition. It's a wonderful book, just to have or to look into occasionally. I finished it within half an hour, but that doesn't make it any less valuable.
