Magrit by Lee Battersby, Amy Daoud
4.0
A beautiful story about a lonely little girl named Magrit. Magrit lives in a Graveyard with her only friend, Master Puppet, fashioned from bones and junk.
One day, a stork drops a baby into the Graveyard. Magrit loves him instantly, names him Bugrat, and devotes her days to teaching him and taking care of him. But the day will come when Bugrat must leave - and then the truth about Magrit will be revealed.
A wonderful, beautiful, sad story perfect for this time of year. Reminiscent of Sebastian Gregory, Tim Burton and Neil Gaiman. Suitable for younger readers. The illustrations are beautiful, the cover is beautiful - this is just a gorgeous book.
