A stunningly, beautiful book! The illustrations are gorgeous and the words, simple but thought provoking at the same time. Like the author says, this book is for all ages and I think we can all find meaning within its pages. A book that can be read again and again and cherished forever. 

I would recommend the hardcopy over the digital version. Thanks to whoever left a copy in our holiday let. I had seen it televised but hadn't gotten around to reading the book itself. I'm so glad I did as it's a relativel quick read, even when lingering over the images, with so much content in terms of words and illustrations.
