The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Loveable characters? Yes
A very short, very sweet read. The art style is gorgeous; I really love that rough sketch look as well as water color, so for that alone 10/10. One of the pages really resonated with me:
"Sometimes I want to say 'I love you all'", said the mole, "But I find it difficult."
"Do you?", said the boy.
"Yes, so I say something like 'I am glad we are all here'"
"Ok," said the boy.
"I am glad we are all here."
"We are so glad you are here too."
I have nothing else to add, really, but I would highly recommend this book :)
