Really lovely, reminded me of AA Milne's art and mood. The only thing I wish about the book was offering some printed/non cursive text of the prose alongside because cursive has been really hard for me to read since I was a kid!! Plus I imagine for anyone who has ESL. The prose is lovely, so it shouldn't be missed.

Well…this isn’t exactly a story, and it is something that anyone would enjoy, I think. I started at the beginning, though I could easily see myself picking up the book and turning to any random page when I need a boost of love. It is so simple and so beautiful. I totally connect with the Mole - he loves cake.

“Their adventures happen in Springtime where one moment snow is falling and the sun shines the next, which is also a little bit like life – it can turn on a sixpence.”

Dios, llevo meses y meses queriendo leer este libro y solo había escuchado cosas maravillosas de el. Al inicio me había emocionado por los mensajes y frases bonitos que presentaba pero luego se volvía repetitivo y medio tedioso, y después terminó de la nada A

Las ilustraciones son una CHULADA, y puedo comprender la decisión de la letra pero es que de plano entendía como 4 de cada 10 palabras, pero bueno

This book is truly beautiful. Its insights may not be groundbreaking, but I come back to it at least once a year and discover something new every time. If you haven’t read it, I’ll happily lend you my copy, it’s like a hug on paper.
