Fantastic little fun book. I’d recommend it to all but particularly to anyone who aspires to be an artist professionally or otherwise.

Mixed but neutral feelings about this book.
As a French person, the first part of the book, Credo, set me off. He’s talking about Charlie hebdo, and we already have way too much discourse about it here, so I’m annoyed when I hear an Englishman talk about it some more. Especially if it’s to be borderline racist and Islamophobic.
The second text, Why our future depends on libraries, reading and daydreaming, was mid and kind of an ok boomer moment.
Making a chair is short, simple and nice. I’d read it again on its own.
Make good art was not bad, but I don’t remember anything about it even if I only just finished it. Except, I think, the most important advice: have fun. I think the rest of the advice was pretty conventional.

This really is a beautiful ode to the art of the story, both through the hearts of those who read them and those who create them.
I'm not sure if it's the reader, librarian, or mom in me, but I teared up.
Gaiman's a genius.

Super quick read, or the entire audiobook is just under an hour! Very good perspective to hear for those trying to navigate and make their make with the arts, too.
Quaint but delightful. Will come back and read again for sure. The art is very nice as well. I love the casual sketch style.
