The Sprite and the Gardener by Rii Abrego, Joe Whitt
4.0
the art style alone has to be one of my favourites i've ever seen. the cover was what caught my eye; incredibly adorable and visually appealing and i was not disappointed because the story is just as cute.
the use of the pastel colours against brighter, stronger colours especially the pinks and purples with the greens was stunning but there were a few times where it was slightly difficult to interpret the scene, to figure out what exactly was happening. very lighthearted but with a lovely message - working together to create something beautiful.
i also enjoyed that each little sprite had its own personality through their name, appearance and mannerisms.
a short read but totally wholesome with stunning illustrations and a wonderful overarching message, it's okay not being able to do absolutely everything and it's okay to ask for help.
*thanks to netgalley & publisher for an e-arc. all opinions are my own.*
